dbo:abstract "Absolute Beginners" was a single released by The Jam on 16 October 1981. Although the song did not appear on any of the band's studio albums, it reached number 4 in the UK Singles Chart. The song was named after the Colin MacInnes novel of the same name. The book was one of songwriter Paul Weller's favourites, being chosen by him when he appeared on Desert Island Discs. "Tales from the Riverbank" appeared as the B-side. The band's record company Polydor later stated that they believed "Tales from the Riverbank" should have been released as the A-side. The song also appeared on the soundtrack for the 1997 film Grosse Pointe Blank. (en) Absolute Beginners is een lied van de Britse band The Jam.
