EP153: Style Council Panel - Mick Talbot, Jaye Ella-Ruth, Stewart Prosser & Camelle Hinds...

It was a real honour to be asked to MC and interview guests at
the recent Here Comes The Weekend event in Woking, and the first
day was a 40th anniversary celebration of The Style Council.


Yes, it really has been 4 whole decades since the reveal of a new
venture from a fella called Paul Weller who had been in a pretty
small band called The Jam… and an absolute wizard on the keys…
Mick Talbot…


The band went on release an incredibly diverse mix of singles - A
sides , B sides - and albums that incorporated elements of pop,
soul, jazz, classical and R&B into their sound.


Their music was characterized by its sophisticated and polished
production, catchy melodies, and socially conscious lyrics.


Throughout the day, we had a great in-conversation session with
Nicky Weller, live music from The Style Councillors and even an
album playback of Café Bleu!


On this episode of The Paul Weller Fan Podcast,
you can hear a recording of a special panel of guests chatting
about their experiences in the band.
