There are some bands that have a formula for their music. Which can make it good or make it bad bad. In this instance, The Jags never fail to hit the mark
If you wanted to start listening to Power Pop, this British band from Scarborough formed in 1978 would be a good start.

You Don't know what you got, until it's gone. In the late 70s I was way into the Punk scene, that anything on the radio was substandard. With those days gone, I miss the well crafted tunes that I over looked. Sure, the hits that played were so heavy in rotation that you never needed to stay glued to the radio dial. Who would have thought that Yacht Rock would even be a thing?

Just discovered recently, even though I may have had it laying about. So this starts out with a long intro, to the point that I thought this might have been an instrumental. A bit of a rhythmic reggae beat with some bright guitar work. I am so glad I let this run. It is absolutley fantastic! So may time changes and layered genres, a Power Pop Masterpiece!

With only a handful of single to their name, this song is fantastic! This is one is highly recommended. It has the whiny vocals, the dead drums, the infectious bass line, A Power Pop masterpiece. It's borderline Punk and could be labeled as Punk Pop.

This song is on two lists of music that were a part of my musical character. The first, the Soundtrack to Valley Girl. What an epic collection of music. Secondly, it's part of the Exposed family, in specific Exposed II.
This song is a fine example of something I would have easily ignored because of the rock music I was too focused on.

Raw, pure energy at it's finest. Never released as a studio version, I came across this epic song from a band ouf the UK. I did some digging and the original bass player that was replaced by Sid Vicious, Glen Matlock. Also a member is none other than Midge Ure from Ultravox. There was a holy grail of punk rock music that was made for me that became the soundtrack of what was to become part of my younger brother and myself lives. If I was to create another, this song would be on it.
Give It A Listen!
