Triple vinyl LP pressing. When Paul Weller announced The Style Council's arrival in March 1983, he'd come a very long way. In fact, at the age of just 24, he was already a musical veteran with six albums and nine Top 10 singles under his belt with The Jam. As their leader he had become a deity-like figure and for his fans, The Jam's split was unimaginable. But creatively restless and of inquisitive mind, Paul jettisoned them at their height to form a collective with an eventual core line-up of Paul with Mick Talbot, Dee C Lee and Steve White. Over four albums and 17 singles, The Style Council made a stand and became the standard bearers of progressive soulful pop and social comment. This is their story. Headstart for Happiness, Long Hot Summer, My Ever-changing Moods, Walls Come Tumbling Down!, Party Chambers, Wanted (Or Waiter There's Some Soup in My Flies), Shout to the Top!, It Just Came to Pieces in My Hands, Come to Milton Keynes, Why I Went Missing, Waiting, Ghosts of Dachau, Down in the Seine, The Paris Match, Life at a Top People's Health Farm, Dropping Bombs On the Whitehouse (Extended Version), Speak Like a Child, The Lodgers (Or She Was Only a Shopkeeper's Daughter), Money Go Round, You're the Best Thing, How She Threw It All Away, A Man of Great Promise, The Piccadilly Trail, A Solid Bond in Your Heart, Sweet Loving Ways, Promised Land, It Didn't Matter, Have You Ever Had It Blue, Spin' Drifting, Here's One That Got Away, Changing of the Guard, My Ever-changing Moods (Demo)
