  2. Sigh.......I'm a huge Weller fan and always will be. I'm just not feeling this, I dont care for it. I miss the music from the era with Minchella, White and Craddock. I really miss Wellers guitar playing and rock sound. Please dont get all "Madonna" on us longtime loyal fans. Go fire up yer scooter, take a long ride and come home with pure instrumental music on the brain. Hell, come back a bit angry! We like you that way.

  3. Its all over has been for ages really but we hang on in hope. Its a bit like that pet that you know is really ill but you keep it going cos you love it so much. Its time to put it to sleep. Hasn't got it any more and he hasn't had it for a long while barring about two decent songs on every album, most people would be slating this sort of stuff if it was by anybody other than Weller, but they feel they have to still say its good, stop lying to yourselves and to him and let him go peacefully. Thanks for the memories Paul you truly are one of the all time legends, but spare us the embarrassment of any more of this stuff. xx

    1. I'm sighing too....how negative you all are. Why would any one who knows anything about Wellers music, want him to rehash Stanley Road every 2/3 years. These are only quick clips but this sounds like a great album to me. This is surely why (some of his) fans are so loyal, he's always trying to better himself. Why do you think he split the jam and never wanted to reform them. Anyone, hope you all change your mind when you actually hear the album in full.

  5. Nobody wants him to rehash stanley road but theres a difference in being loyal and having blind (or in this case deaf) adoration. Electonic pop? do me a favour. The word to describe this collection of poor mans kraftwerk songs begins in S and ends in T and its not salt.

  6. Big fan since 1977 and always find PWs music needs a few listens.On every album tracks that "I just don't get" but overall more positive on this at first listen than I was Wake Up the Nation.For example I did not care for Around the Lake at all on first two listens now I play it often.

Paul Weller Interviewed During Maida Vale Appearance For BBC Radio 4!

Fresh back from a short tour of the US and Japan, Paul Weller talks about the 30th anniversary of The Jam's sixth and final studio album, The Gift, and where he's at right now. Repost From The Huffington Post By: Jason Holmes Paul Weller bounds into his chair, an electronic cigarette gripped in his hand. We're in the BBC's Studio Three in Maida Vale. Visibly calm owing to post-tour exhaustion and a morning trip to the gym, Weller is here to be interviewed by John Wilson for BBC Radio 4's Mastertapes series. "Back in those days, bands put out an album a year, you toured with it for a year, then you went back in the studio and repeated the process. Looking back, I was glad I experienced that pressure. It helped me refine my craft and find myself as a writer. It kept me on my toes," says Weller, Gibson acoustic on knee. "It wasn't a treadmill, it was just what bands did back then. I never questioned it." Lest the passing decades dim...

BBC's Review Of Paul Weller's "WUTN!"

BBC Review "A parade-worthy triumph from an artist rediscovering his experimental side." Chris Lo 2010-04-09 Over the course of Paul Weller’s career, he has displayed the kind of restless genre-hopping that saw him dissolve The Jam at the height of their powers in favour of experimenting with Motown, funk and synth-jazz with The Style Council. His resurrection as solo artist and exalted figure of the Britpop scene in the 90s saw this experimental spirit recede somewhat in the face of traditional rock releases that propelled him to the peak of the UK charts. As a result, casual listeners tend to identify Weller with the kind of dad-friendly trad-rock that blights record store shelves every time Father’s Day rolls around. However, with 2008’s 22 Dreams and now Wake Up the Nation, fans are being reacquainted with Weller the innovator. Here the Modfather is making full use of his exceptional musical vocabulary, and Wake Up the Nation feels like an unrestrained sonic explo...
