Contact sheet of The Jam's photo shoot for the cover of their debut album 'In The City'
Martyn Goddard recalls, "I had a phone call from Bill Smith, one of the art directors at Polydor Records, in 1977. He had to produce an LP cover for a new band, which he was excited about but as usual it was an urgent assignment as the record company wanted to release the album in May. The New Wave band was named The Jam, a three-piece outfit comprising of Bruce Foxton, Rick Buckler and Paul Weller, who to quote Bill 'is a bloke with definite ideas about the group's image. At this point I hadn't met any member of the band or seen a photograph."

Signed limited edition of 25 only this size
One of three rolls of film used to produce the 'In the City' album cover for the Jam shot in my studio in London March 1977.
The band had style and the slick black suits helped produce what was to be one of Polydor Records first monochrome album covers.
Martyn made album cover photographs for The Jam, Blondie, The Cure and others over the course of a 20 year career.
