"Funeral Pyre" was the The Jam's thirteenth single released on 6 June 1981. Backed by the B-side "Disguises", a cover of a Who track, it reached #4 in the UK Singles chart. The recording is the most fiercely delivered amongst the group's singles discography, and is noted for Rick Buckler's particularly frenetic and prominent drum track.

dbpprop:abstract
  • "Funeral Pyre" was the The Jam's thirteenth single released on 6 June 1981. Backed by the B-side "Disguises", a cover of a Who track, it reached #4 in the UK Singles chart. The recording is the most fiercely delivered amongst the group's singles discography, and is noted for Rick Buckler's particularly frenetic and prominent drum track. This may be accounted for by the fact that the song's genesis was a studio jam between Buckler and bassist Bruce Foxton, with Paul Weller's contribution coming later. (Thus the musical elements overshadow the lyrical. ) The song does not appear on any of the band's studio albums.
