I love the Rejects.

There were Oi bands before these guys.

Cock Sparrer and Sham 69 were the first two IIRC.

They both do predate the rejects. Both of those bands just considered themselves Rock-n-Roll.Particularly Sparrer. Their recordings from 1974-1980 ish are pure Glam. After the Rejects song is when that style of punk started to be known as Oi!,as the story goes.
Cock Sparrer embraced the idea more than JImmy Pursey.
And I love Cock Sparrer and Sham too.

So, here is some glammy sparrer

Only because the term Oi hadn't been coined yet. Much like punk, there were bands playing the music before the term was coined. In the early days of punk, even after the term was coined, there was no definitive sound.

Sham and the Sparrer were just working class rock n' roll.

Cock Sparrer were to Oi as The Stooges (or even the Ramones) were to punk.

Cockney Rejects didn't coin the term, but they did take the ball and run with it.

If you like early Cock Sparrer, you should get Jook 'Different Class' (if you can find it).

That is all very true. All I am saying is that the term Oi! as it pertains to music is similar to the term Reggae, which was around before Toots recorded "Do the Reggay" But after that song, there was a paradigm shift in what the music of JA was called. Same thing with the Rejects. It doesn't lessen the efforts of those who came before, and, who are, in the case of Cock Sparrer, and Sham, much better bands.
I am also one of the rare people that doesn't like The Stooges, at all.
