'Fast Car/Slow Traffic' reunites Paul with Jam bassist Bruce Foxton for the first time on a record since 1983.
"It's a real London tune. It's pretty full on. It was really interesting to hear Bruce playing on it. You can instantly tell it's him." Says Paul of the track.
A - Fast Car, Slow Traffic
B - Fast Car, Slow Traffic (Primal Scream Remix)
Poor choice for a single...Aim high would've been a far better choice if indeed a fourth single 'needed' to be culled from the LP.. It's all getting a bit 'S Club 7' releasing almost every album track as a single or a B side...
ReplyDeletebye bye weller singles. aint gonna buy em anymore. I think its a shameful policy. double aside my arse.
ReplyDeleteShopping, Butterfly Collector,Ghosts of Dachau, It Just Came To Pieces In My Hands, Fly On The Wall,A Year Late-even Golden Leaves.
ReplyDeleteThey are B sides. No one's surely claiming anything like the same importance is being placed on PW B sides these days.
'Wake Up The Nation' is a fuckin astounding release.It's great to see weller retain a modernist approach, but the singles policy negates that a bit-without even talking about the expense.It was once a genuinely exciting thing to buy a weller single.It isn't now. Come on,man-sort it out...The Cap is right- a remix is not a double A side mate.
