In 2004ish, me and some members of the Splinters mailing list received these cover proofs and an anonymous note, reproduced here: — “There were some dedicated fans of The JAM in the New York offices of Polydor. When they got wind of Weller’s intention to break-up the band they assembled a farewell album – a singles collection. My friend Kyle Gilmore was involved in the project. They were really hoping to finally put The JAM over the top in the US… I think they even entertained fantasies of convincing Weller to continue the group if the LP was successful <..> they had the funky fan club version of Tales From The Riverbank and also got hold of the group recording of A Solid Bond In Your Heart, which was slated for the LP. This infuriated Weller and he stopped the album’s release. I don’t know if he had to file a legal injunction or if Polydor acquiesced without a fight, but the Beat Surrender long-player was put on the shelf. It’s a shame really, because it would have been a fitting, full-length salutation from The JAM. Artwork and label proofs courtesy of my buddy Kyle Gilmore”. — I don’t think we talked about it on Splinters tho, as considered a confidential topic and yet all to be verified. Almost simultaneously, however, it became of public domain on the renowned Steve Hoffman forums. Billboard Japan Hot Albums – Week of March 22, 2023". Billboard Japan (in Japanese) .
