Paul Weller & Tracie Young

Paul Weller

"It was totally liberating. I wanted to have the freedom to use different musicians. Have the core of me and Mick and then bring in different people and try to make every record sound different. It was the polar opposite of being in The Jam"

Paul & Mick

Mick Talbot

"It WAS hugely enjoyable. There was a nice mood about the place. Particularly in the early days it was a liberation for Paul, and that trickled down to the rest of us. Plus we tried to treat it like a job, going in Monday to Friday"

 "We were just a group of people doing our own thing. I am not saying everything about The Style Council was perfect, but we had a great run for about 2 years, from Café Bleu onwards, ‘84 and ‘85"

 "I went to the bathroom halfway through the interview and I noticed all these gold discs of this band called The Jam. I said to them, “So who are these guys?” And Paul said to me, “Oh, some shit band who record here.”
