Paul Weller Recipe In Teenage Cancer Trust's Rockstar Cookbook!

With the exception perhaps of American Pie, gigs rarely rock to the sound of songs about food. Musicians tend to prefer coffee and cigarettes to a nicely balanced risotto, and so food has become the preserve of novelty records such as music hall’s Boiled Beef And Carrots or more recently, a certain singing chef on South Park.

The Teenage Cancer Trust’s Rock Star Cookbook features over 60 musicians and their recipes (although, strangely, no Bucks Fizz). From Katie Melua to Cliff Richard and Paul Weller, they all have one thing in common – a love of cooking.

The result was more interesting and "true" than the official live album, even if "just" audience recordings. The (free) distribution started just after the 9/11 tragedy, and I remember myself trying to do the back sleeve artwork at home that sleepless night, watching the news in horror and despair. In the end, almost unconsciously, I made what could be seen as a
