uhler · 09.18.2008, 04:01 PM

i just want to say they are one of my favorite bands ever.

This Is Not Here · 09.18.2008, 04:17 PM

Isn't it so very quiet here?

Cantankerous · 09.18.2008, 04:17 PM

Or ponce punk, as they call it on my ward.

Cantankerous · 09.18.2008, 04:21 PM

they are ridiculously poncey. but i enjoy them.

MellySingsDoom · 09.18.2008, 04:21 PM

The Jam were grest indeed, but Weller's subsequent "career" has been one long snorefest. My faves? "That's Entertainment", "Eton Rifles" and the bitter love-songness of "The Bitterest Pill".

Cantankerous · 09.18.2008, 04:22 PM

the butterfly collector
i have the yellow promo 7"

When I picked up that first album back in 77 or whatever, I was like, wtf, it's the Who! But it did grow on me.

the bitterest pill is one of my favorites too. i really like going underground, down in the tube station at midnight, their cover of david watts and slow down a whole lot. slow down is actually my favorite jam song.

jimbrim · 09.18.2008, 04:24 PM

In The City is a great tune.

It wasn't until he formed The Style Council that he truly became the greatest figure in popular music besides that bloke with the muscles out of Go West. A true giant.

that record is like a punk rock early who, but that's what makes it so great since the who's first album and singles were amazing.

gmku · 09.18.2008, 04:27 PM

True.

MellySingsDoom · 09.18.2008, 04:27 PM

demonrail - I know all about you and your "secret" Mick Merton fetish.

Demon's real #1 tune is "Come To Milton Keynes". TrueMellyFax.

SuperCreep · 09.18.2008, 04:30 PM

They're pretty good. I like their singles better than their albums.

PAULYBEE2656 · 09.18.2008, 04:51 PM

they were a great song band.. i mean the albums never quite clicked together but they have some amazing songs... going underground, town called malice, news of the world... classics!!!!

and i also hate to admit to liking anything weller ever did.... but thats my problem.....

narlus · 09.18.2008, 04:53 PM

i saw Paul Weller last week.

not so good.

'the butterfly collector' was magnificent, though.
