In this very special episode of The Mixtape, we’re joined by Bruce Foxton—legendary bassist of The Jam—for a candid and heartfelt conversation that spans decades of music, memories, and inspiration.
Bruce reflects on his three favourite Jam songs and offers a deep appreciation for the astonishing songwriting of an 18-year-old Paul Weller, whose lyrics and melodies helped define a generation. We also talk about Bruce’s current health, his outlook on life, and what keeps him passionate about music after all these years.
He shares insights into his dynamic collaboration with Russell Hastings on their latest project, The Butterfly Effect, and how the new material resonates with fans of The Jam in a live setting—blending nostalgia with fresh energy.
As always on The Mixtape, Bruce builds his imaginary 6-track mixtape, giving us a glimpse into the artists and songs that inspired his journey, from punk beginnings to modern-day classics.
🎧 A must-listen for fans of The Jam, British punk and mod revival, and anyone who loves the stories behind the music.
