I know I should be unbiased, but I'll be sorry to see either of these bands going out.

Despite some great tunes, The Jam were overrated from the bands coming out of punk. But I like Weller, and actually prefer his Style Council and early solo stuff.

Bolan developed a style that has never been successfully repeated, but it’s a bit samey and the there’s not much of interest beyond a Greatest Hits package.
