The Jam split in 1982 at the height of their success playing the biggest arena. Paul Weller has remained in the public eye for 31 years now. After the Jam he formed The Style Council and had much success with them. The Paul Weller Movement wasn't so successful but as a solo artiste he has again hit the heady heights and popularity shows no signs of abating. Bruce Foxton joined Stiff Little Fingers in 1991 and remained with them for 15 years. In 2007, the Jam reformed without Weller as From The Jam to favourable reviews.

By 1980 The Vapors had had a huge hit with Turning Japanese. They split in 1981. Dave Fenton is now a solicitor and Edward Bazalgette is a TV producer
