he wrote all the songs bar a cover of Dr. John's "I Walk on Gilded Splinters"; he co-produced it and, apart from his earthy vocals, he plays guitar, piano, organ and percussion. All the tracks are special, but it's the three hits--"Changingman", "Broken Stones" and the truly wonderful "You Do Something To Me"--that really stand out, as does "Porcelain Gods", which has something of the old Style Council about it. Soulful, the style is underlined by Carleen Anderson's rich backing vocals on five of the tracks. Weller is also joined by some of his other musical chums: Noel Gallagher, Steve Craddock and Steve Winwood. --Carina Trimingham

Advantages: The Mod Father's best album. May take a little time to get into it but well worth it Disadvantages: That anyone could have missed this album.
While new albums come and go, one that has stayed consistently in my CD player over the years is PaulWeller's StanleyRoad. I was first introduced to Weller by my dad listening to Jam albums when I was much younger and from there I started to take a keen interest in all of his music from The Jam to The Style Council and on to the more recent solo stuff. This album is possibly his best material to date as a solo artist and certainly rates up there with the best stuff he has written in any guise. The Mod father is still going strong and even though this album is 10 years old it doesn't sound dated at all.
It's one of those albums that a lot of people seem to own and that will in a large part be down to the relaxing feel throughout. For me Weller is one of the main influences for a lot of music made in the last 15 years or so. He's been ...
Advantages: Lyrically brilliant, and excellent music Disadvantages: It is hard to keep up such a high standard for the whole album
Inside?. It is utterly breathtaking and haunting.
?Woodcutters Son? totally rocks!! There is one line in the chorus that sums PaulWeller up, ?Give me a chance, I?ll cut you down with a glance?. The piano features strongly again, and the song tip toes to the end before fading out. ?Time Passes? is a ballad, and it showcases Weller?s vocals so well. This is a criminally ignored song, and I can never understand why. It is the story of a lost love, and how you feel when you are not ready to let the memories of someone go. Weller wrote it about his wife at the time as they were going through a bad patch. Again, it is the lyrics which do it for me. There is a guitar riff at the end which sounds like part of another song, and in my eyes could have been totally left out.
The title track ?StanleyRoad? is a rousing number. Weller shows that he ...
Advantages: A remarkable, perfectly produced live album Disadvantages: It is a live album, and this is enough to put many buyers off!
fathers and mothers jumped and hopped around in drain pipes and minis, their children now stand, silent in front of the same man but in reflective thought of his words, rather than his music.
After the surprising success of the start of his solo career, (and let's face it, we didn't think he would ever appear again after the break of The Style Council) he bought us strong albums with guitar in hand. In the shape of 'PaulWeller,' 'Wild Wood,' but it was only with the giant storm of a live album, simply titled, 'Live Wood,' in September 1994 that he had stumbled across something that other bands find incredibly hard to do, and that's release a pleasing live LP.
Jumping back into the studio for a brief while, he didn't dip his toes into the waters of live audience participation again until, 'Days Of Speed,' in 2001. Complete with all ...

Album Notes
Personnel: Paul Weller (vocals, guitar, piano, Hammond B-3 organ, organ, Wurlitzer piano, Novatron, percussion); Carleen Anderson (vocals); Steve Cradock (acoustic & electric guitars, background vocals); Noel Gallagher (acoustic guitar); David Liddle (acoustic slide guitar);; Joy Hawley (cello); Brendan Lynch (accordion, Mini-Moog synthesizer, tambourine, finger cymbals, cyremin); Steve Winwood (keyboards); Helen Turner (Hammond B-3 organ, organ, Novatron); Mick Talbot (electric piano, organ); Dr. Robert (bass, background vocals); Mark Nelson, Yolanda Charles (bass); Steve White (drums, percussion); Constantine Wier (background vocals). Named after a street in Weller's home-town of Woking in Surrey, this album was greeted with universal approval by critics and fans. The brilliant Peter Blake collage throughout the package portrays much greater nostalgia than is contained in the lyrics. The family snapshots and the Green Line picture serve only to fool the listener. The title track is clearly about the terraced houses that have now given way to 90s starter apartments, but the more personal content of tracks such as 'You Do Something To Me' is where Weller truly bares his soul. It would strongly appear that before recording this album, Weller listened to many Traffic albums.
Album Reviews
Rolling Stone (7/13-7/27/95, pp.109-110) - 3 Stars - Good - "...a singer/songwriter album recorded live in the studio, and...seems powered by the painful self-consciousness of a person whose exterior bid for success rubs against his interior battle to meet his own moral standards....Weller's work supplies the connecting link between several generations of British rock and soul." Entertainment Weekly (7/21/95, p.64) - "...rocks harder than its predecessor, while retaining its solid songwriting and surefooted '70s-style funk." - Rating: A- Q (2/96, p.63) - Included in Q's 50 Best Albums of 1995 - "...blending its obvious but welcome retro influences with the hard-won maturity of a songwriter in his prime..." Mojo (p.55) - Ranked #86 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "More affecting than anything he's ever done. Like The Style Council never happened." Uncut (p.120) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[I]t's the warmth of STANLEY ROAD itself which ultimately merits this lavish repackaging and ensures it a high-ranking place in the Weller canon." NME (12/23-30/95, pp.22-23) - Ranked #25 in NME's 'Top 50 Albums Of The Year' for 1995 - "...his most honest, heartfelt and mature album to date....He rocks like Lennon in a cello factory..."
