THE JAM — A BEAT CONCERTO by Paolo Hewitt ( Riot Stories £4.95) NEATLY COINCIDING with the first anniversary of the Jam's demise and the release of a greatest hits package 'Snap'. comes the official biography. 'A Beat Concerto' is everything a good pop biography should be; informative, comprehensive and well presented. Journalist Paolo Hewitt was probably closer to the Jam than anyone outside al their immediate entourage. It shows. The interviews he conducts with the group, their friends and lamilies builds a neat picture of the formation and rise of the Jam. This plus ajuicy selection of anecdotes, comment and wonderful archive photos make 'A Beat Concerto' essential reading for any Jam tan. Footnote: With the prevailing hyper- turnover of pop product it's doubtful whether any of today's new groups will be able to maintain momentum for as long as The Jam did. The Jam's story is that of one of the last great un 'processed pop groups. In future all pop biogs will have more to do with stylists and video producers than great songs or great shows.

HEN LEEE John of magination was a WIwee lad, instead of going out and playing football with his mates, he'd sit in his own room watching telly and listening to records all day. Yep, one of pop's most extrovert personalities used to sit around indoors not talking to a soul. The reason is that as soon as he could walk and talk, Leee John was obsessed with entertainment. He was obsessed with films, he was obsessed by actors, he was obsessed by musicals. He lived out silver screen fantasies all by himself, and by the tender age of IZ knew most musical soundtracks by heart. And even now, Leee John will rattle off the great names from the past or recollect his favourite scenes and start singing aloud — a habit that's been with him ell his life. With Imagination, you'll have seen half of those glittering fantasies relived. Leee's life revolves around actors and artists of the old school style, where you drink champagne, go to receptions and constantly watch the work of others. "I remember my lather used to say don't watch television all the time, when you grow up you'll be able to watch those films," says Leee. "But I'd sit there in my little room watching it. Iwas obsessed with it. At that time Iwent to live in New York and Iremember getting all the film soundtracks when Iwas 12 or 13.

LL OF this isn't just entertainment for Leee. AUsing the experience of others he's steering his own career with Imagination and some acting roles — he appeared in 'Doctor Who' last year with Peter Davidson. And through a childhood that more or less revolved around showbiz he learned a lot about being black and trying to get work and dealing with a lifestyle that although glamorous can be very gruelling as well. "I'm very conscious about being black in this country," says Leee. "It was when Iwent to the States that Ibecame aware of the problem as it was then. I noticed there actually were black teachers, black writers and so on. Irealised that in England black people weren't doing anything. "Finally ¡ found that you can make it if you try. If you believe in yourself, you can get the faith of others to help you out and believe in you. . "I'm very annoyed that there are no black roles in cinemas and the theatres as there is a hell of a lot of black talent out there capable of playing the parts. Channel Four is good, but the parts are only few and far between and when you do get a programme it's something like 'No Problem' which is a specific black part. "The Doctor Who bit did was good because it was colourless. And it also gave me a chance in a lifetime because Icould observe what went on from my position. 'The Wiz' helped a lot simply because it put black actors and black people in general to work and afterward there were more jobs. There was a big question about a black person playing Shakespeare's 'Othello', but it was done in America, so why not here? In Imagination Ican change the situation by helping to provide a release for black actors to work. I'll be doing some producing with a group called STAR Total Contrast and I'm hoping to stage aphotography exhibition. -One thing for sure is that the days when we played maids and servants with gooey eyes are really gone."
