Rick Buckler, drummer of The Jam, has died at 69


Drummer Rick Buckler, best known for his work with The Jam passed away earlier today, 18th February 2025.

After The Jam, Buckler formed Time UK with Jimmy Edwards, Ray Simone, Danny Kustow, and the bassist Nick South. In the late 1980’s Buckler was involved in studio/production before leaving the professional music altogether in the mid-1990’s focussing on carpentry and what would now be classed as ‘upscaling’ distressed furniture. After years away from music, in 2005 he set up a new band, The Gift, named after The Jam’s final album, initially with Russell Hastings (lead vocals/guitar) and Dave Moore (Bass).
