The Jags, a mod revival fueled new wave/power pop band, was formed in 1978 by the Yorkshire-based songwriting team of Nick Watkinson (vocals) and John Alder (guitar), with Steve Prudence (bass) and Alex Baird (drums). In July 1978, they signed to Island Records and released a promising four-track EP. Their 1980 debut LP, 'Evening Standards', included a highly derivative though memorable single called "Back of My Hand", which had reached the U.K. Top 40 the previous fall.
These are photos from concerts where The Jags played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
