He needs to stop making or releasing records, Wildwood album was great but what is that new dreary tune being played just now, next will be a duet with Barbara Streisand
Could users put (not dead) or some other clue to the thread content in titles involving famous people please 🙂
but in his current form he's enabled one of the best photos ever
Wildwood album was great but what is that new dreary tune being played just now,
Wildwood was 25 years ago! Ffs! I enjoyed Stanley Road and hated the next one. Occasionally listened to his stuff since then but struggle to really enjoy it. I have however listened to his new album and got very bored.
Agreed, dull as **** dad rock.
Looking forward to Countzero's opinion, obvs.
Agreed, dull as ****
+1
Saw him play at the Bristol Downs festival recently, he was great. Mind you, he did pretty much stick to his greatest hits.
he should be thrown into the sea for Style Council alone.
Where's Dez??
he's too cool for criticism.
just stick the Jam on and remember the good times.
No he’s not too cool.
A bloody excellent Style Council moment. (sort of)
And his finest moment.
as a teen and Jam fan, i went to see the very first Style Council gig at the London Dominion - the disappointment still eats away at me.
Having watched weller from Leeds to Chicago over the years. He has consistently written good music, all the while adapting to new styles and also his age. He his now in his sixties, so therefore cannot be expected to leaping around the stage knocking out Peacock suit, changingman, from the floorboards up, brushed Etc etc for two hours
the new music is reflective of life as it is today
He his now in his sixties, so therefore cannot be expected to leaping around the stage
Just saying...

Mick Jagger seems to manage OK.
He is only 60 but looks like 70 in that pic with Ronnie Wood, maybe 8 kids have taken their toll
Shout to the top is one of the finest pop tunes of all time.
His signature first solo album remains his finest work.
If you miss ‘The Jam’ Paul Weller follow Russell Hastings who performs all the Jam stuff with Bruce Foxton..... brilliant live gigs with some flawless Jam recitals
Agreed, dull as **** dad rock.
Looking forward to DezB’s opinion, obvs.
There, FTFY.
I liked The Jam, can’t say he’s done anything since that would entice me to buy an album, basically I’m indifferent.
that pic with Ronnie Wood
Did he pinch those shoes from a bowling alley?
He looks like he's morphing into Iggy Pop on his latest promo photo
The Jam were good. After that not only did he make shitty music he’s also, in my eyes, responsible for Oasis existing. That is a crime I can never forgive.
This is so funny, I'm reposting it in the same thread...
How much sugar in the Jam?
I can’t stop laughing at that picture. It’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while.
Jeez are you guys fawning over the pic new to the internet?
the new music is reflective of life as it is today
Erm, dull? Bullshit.
CZ - I was joking given the no of gig you go to .
I, Er, I... I.. this is , you must understand... this is difficult... I agree with CountZero! There! It happened!
have to add, saw Weller do this 3/4 time dull as hell song thing on Later the other week - it was like Val Doonican or something my Gran would’ve listened to. Quite horrible.
Funny cos I had Going Underground earworm yesterday. Was singing it while riding up the shops.
ps. Love ya CZ 😘
