Fuck him . Saw him and Foxton in the One Oak in Frimley early 80s, said hello ,they didn't answer. It had nothing to do with the fact I was very drunk and making a tnuc of myself.

I like the Style Council stuff, maybe not the later stuff when they went all “house music” but Shout to the Top is a BELTING TUNE

I only like a few of his songs.
I find him a bit WORKMANLIKE and lacking in poetry, artisty and finesse.

I used to follow The Jam right from the very early gigs and Weller as well as the others were top fellas who always had time for the fans. Weller got a bit moody in the Style Council but it was Mick Talbot who was a right prick with his head so far up his own arse he could lick his tonsils. Weller got to be even more miserable and moody during his solo career and fell out with most of his own mates and pretty much all to do with his "lifestyle". He's made some great music in his long career but no of it during the Style Council years and not much solo stuff either.
