Review From News Of The World
By John Earls, 30/05/2010
From the Royal Albert Hall, London

IF the mark of a great performer is how well he copes in adversity, then The Modfather really is a legend.

Recent albums Wake Up The Nation and 22 Dreams are among his best, but even mighty Paul struggles against the venue's dodgy sound - his string section is inaudible.

It doesn't help that the first half features few classics - only recent angry hit From The Floorboards Up and riotous new song Trees rise above the muddy noise to hit home.

Then, just when it looks like a bad night at the office, the music gets more furious as Weller and his superb band virtually set fire to their remaining songs, including The Jam smashes Pretty Green and Start.

Weller is reborn, finding room for beautiful solo hit Broken Stones among the chaos.

The lesson is, never mess with an old Mod.

But rather than reliving past glory, Weller spent the last year recording 22 Dreams, the most expansive and experimental album of his career. “I was conscious when I walked into the studio that I wanted to do something different. I didn’t want to make As Is Now Part 2,” Weller tells Rock Daily. “There was this mentality where it was like, ‘Let’s try anything that comes into your mind.’” Weller sequestered himself in his country studio, recruited some famous Britpop friends like Oasis‘ Noel Gallagher and Blur’s Graham Coxon and spent hours improvising with his band. The result was 22 Dreams, a genre-leapin...
