WHETHER you're a fan of The Jam or simply a rock n' roll devotee of any age - 'About the Young Idea' is a must-see exhibition. Oldham Chronicle music journalist Simon Smedley was always nailed-on to be heading for the Cunard Building in Liverpool at some stage once 'About the young Idea' headed north following a successful run at London's Somerset House last year. Now, he's been - and it's amazing. The colour, the noise, the quality and the quantity of memorabilia on show took him aback. Listen to Simon speaking exclusively to one of the exhibition's three curators, Nicky Weller, sister of Jam front-man and mod icon Paul.
