"Start!" is the eleventh UK single release by punk rock band, The Jam and their second number-one, following "Going Underground"/"Dreams of Children".〔Martin Roach (ed) (2008) ''The Virgin Book of British Hit Singles'', Virgin Books, London〕 Upon its release on 15 August 1980, it debuted at number three, and two weeks later reached number one for one week. Written by Paul Weller and produced by Vic Coppersmith-Heaven and The Jam, "Start!" was the lead single from the band's fifth album ''Sound Affects''. The single's B-side is "Liza Radley". "Start!" is based on both the main guitar riff and bass riff of The Beatles' 1966 song "Taxman" from the album ''Revolver'', written by George Harrison. Likewise, The Jam's "Dreams of Children" had featured the same "Taxman" bassline, played then as a lead guitar riff. The album version of the song runs at 2:30 and features trumpets in the final section. The single version, also featured on the "Snap!" compilation, is edited and slightly remixed, and omits the trumpets. ==Other versions and sampling== Beastie Boys covered the song, which appears on their 1999 single, "Alive". 808 State sampled the song on their 1993 single, "10 X 10". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Start!」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
