| The recently-reissued All Mod Cons is generally recognised as their best album, although in some ways I prefer Sound Affects. Compilations and live albums excluded. |

Setting Sons and All mod cons were correct albums, but clearly their bext is The Gift ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Nice Poll Chopper! Nothing wrong with the Jam, great band in their day... Anyway as to there best album I like In the City for nostalgic reasons, after hearing John Peel play the entire album on his show but musically I'd go for Sound Affects tracks like Pretty Green, That's Entertainment, Set the House Ablaze, Monday, Man in the Cornershop, etc... Weller's writing really began to shine. ------------- http://www.humanism.org.uk/site/cms/contentChapterView.asp?chapter=309" rel="nofollow - Humanism |

I might put them forward for inclusion in PA. After all, Setting Sons was orignally a concept album. |

All Mod Cons is my favourite, although I wish Paul Weller had included almost anything apart from English Rose. Setting Sons and Sound Affects are also excellent albums, but All Mod Cons is the one I'd rescue from a burning building.
