Paul Weller At The Azkena Rock Festival!


From elcorro.com (translation by google):

On Saturday night lifted the Englishman Paul Weller, a mod yet elegant and enthusiastic in his work that won the fight by U.S. rocker Brian Setzer, who seems content with the styling routine. Weller made about 18 pieces in a bolus intense better than that given by the late last year in Bilbao Live Festival. And not just because Vitoria appear without tummy! His 76 minutes with the intensity struggled for half a minute passed valley, and rebounded to finish. The sound of the godfather of the mods was powerful and left diapers Setzer rockabilly. With her hair dyed blonde and proud opened cane, he sang with onomatopoeia, shook the funk and dance, played guitar with attitude, moved to the mic with the swagger of a dandy, was heard by a band on (the battery liked), perhaps at the time loosens valley to approach the experimental lisergia recovered the 'Start' of the Jam, became ideological 'Wake Up The Nation', the piano singing 'Pieces Of a Dream' by sending stern Peter Gabriel, made smooth soul to Sam Cooke and the final triad gave lessons for the brit-pop today.

La noche del sábado la levantó el inglés Paul Weller, un mod elegante y aún entusiasta en su labor que ganó la pelea al rocker yanqui Brian Setzer, quien parece conformarse con el estilismo rutinario. Weller hizo unas 18 piezas intensas en un bolo mucho mejor que el dado por la tarde el año pasado en el festival Bilbao Live. ¡Y no sólo porque en Vitoria apareciera sin barriga! Sus 76 minutos pugnaron con la intensidad, por la mitad pasaron un momento valle, y repuntaron para acabar. El sonido del padrino de los mods fue poderoso y dejó en pañales al del rockabilly Setzer. Con su pelo teñido de rubio abrió cañero y orgulloso, cantó con onomatopeyas, agitó el funk y el baile, tocó la guitarra con actitud, se movió ante el micro con la chulería de un dandy, se dejó escuchar por una banda sobrada (el batería gustó mucho), quizá en el momento valle se destensó por acercarse a la lisergia experimental, recuperó el 'Start' de los Jam, se tornó ideológico en 'Wape Up The Nation', al piano cantó 'Pieces Of a Dream' remitiendo por adusto a Peter Gabriel, hizo soul suave a lo Sam Cooke y en la tríada final dictó lecciones para el brit-pop actual.

  2. He didn`t play the Bilbao BBK Live Festival. It was the Azkena Rock Festival, held in Vitoria-Gasteiz. His set was powerful, short but intense.

Short "22 Dreams" Album Preview At Rolling Stone.com!

Album Preview: Paul Weller Recruits Noel Gallagher, Thunderstorms to Share His “22 Dreams” “You get to this stage in life where you say ‘I’ve done everything that I can do,’” says Paul Weller. As he passes the half-century mark, Weller easily could have returned to his old stomping grounds, whether it was the mod-punk of his first band the Jam or the pop leanings of the Style Council. 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...
