A great collection of eighteen varied singles in chronological order from the genius of Paul Weller's soul infused collective.
A must have for any fan as arrangements on hits like ‘Ever Changing Moods’ vary dramatically from the album version.
A focused, singular tour through the digitally remastered magic that is The Style Council.
Included here are non-album versions of ‘Speak Like A Child’, ‘Money Go Round’ and ‘A Solid Bond In Your Heart’ featured together with the single version of wondrous ballad ‘You’re The Best Thing’ and a very remarkable Bossa Nova exploration of ‘Have You Ever Had It Blue’.
The Style Council’s later career is also explored in Talbot co-penned ‘Wanted’ and ‘Life At A Top People’s Health Farm’.
Additionally included is a controversial track eulogising Britain’s newest town. Weller explains – “'Come To Milton Keynes' was about all those new towns and we had loads of complaints saying, How dare you say we're all junkies up here, come up and have a look at our fine town.”
Closing the album is the sole composition from the rejected Modernism: A New Decade album, the house dance cover, ‘Promised Land.’
