The Paul Weller Movement - Cosmos flac album

John William "Paul" Weller Jr (born 25 May 1958) is an English singer-songwriter and musician. Weller achieved fame with the punk rock/new wave/mod revival band The Jam. He had further success with the blue-eyed soul music of The Style Council (1983–1989), before establishing himself as a solo artist in 1991.

Paul Weller is Paul Weller's first solo album, released in 1992. After disbanding The Style Council and leaving label Polydor in 1989, Weller formed The Paul Weller Movement in 1990, releasing a single, "Into Tomorrow", on his own Freedom High record label, in October 1991. Its success - reaching in the UK chart - led to Weller being offered a new record deal with Go! Discs, and the resulting album was released on 1 September 1992, reaching on the UK album chart.

Paul Weller - Broken Stones. The Stanley Road album is named after the Woking street where Weller grew up, and this nostalgic song looks back at the changes that take place across a life, like pebbles tossed around on a beach. The Style Council - You’re The Best Thing. When Weller called time on The Jam in December 1982, he collaborated with keyboardist Mick Talbot of Mod revivalists The Merton Parkas and singer Dee C Lee to form The Style Council. The band continued Weller’s interest in soul - and this sweet love song is one of his best. Paul Weller - Wild Wood. After the demise of The Style.

The album is a clean break for Paul Weller, formerly of The Jam (1972–1982), and later of The Style Council (1983-1989), now competing directly,, and becoming England's answer to Lenny Kravitz, down to the Italian boots, later an inspiration for Mike Meyer's portrayal of Austin Powers, to great worldwide acceptance and success  . So for lti instrumentalist Paul Weller this solo album says a lot about who he is. He's manged to mix up the rockier aspect of the Jam with the many shades of soul and funk of the Style Council. And managed to "keep it real" with music that is very live in flavor but also produced slicky as well.

The Beatles' seminal 'Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart’s Club Band'.

Paul Weller has hinted darkly that he made enemies with the Style Council. John Weller was "living in the dark ages. He was asking for a a million pounds. After a short, shaky but self-stabilising tour with the Paul Weller Movement, our man financed last's year's self-titled debut solo album and found a loving home for it at Go! Discs (home too of the silver-tongued Bragg)

The Gift" - 30 years after the band's split, Paul Weller talks about 'The Gift' - the last album for The Jam. The band's only No 1 album, it marked a musical departure from the classic Jam sound to a more soul-influenced style, and it ushered in Weller's ideas for the Style Council. It was an album that didn't just focus on the state of society, it also had a lot to say about where music was going in the 1980s - and it included the classic No 1 'Town Called Malice' as well as 'Running On The Spot' and 'Carnation'.
