Paul Weller - Town Called Malice. Live at The Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts, Pyramid Stage, Worthy Farm, Pilton, Shepton Mallet, Somerset, 28 June 2015.
The MODFATHER!! always a beast onstage! had the pleasure to watch him this summer opening for BLUR at Wembley Stadium and what a show it was...BIBLICAL!
@@strangedaysindeed9 thanx 4 reply, but its not that, the tune is identical to TCM in every way just without wellers vocal! im certain its from an obscure 60's soul, or rnb tune, i have lots of that stuff and i guess so does weller; and still not come across it yet
@@strangedaysindeed9 not that, its a tune ive not heard since and nothing well known, i wish id asked the DJ on the night, but he may not have told me anyway
true full of middle class pen pusher types..i seen the jam in 79..proper ..football lads ..working class heroes.council estate lads..how times have changed a paul..
Yeah, I just watched the other TCM @ Glasto live with the drums in the very capable hands of Steve White, so much better. Keyboard on here sounds like my Gran.
Why do they need two percussionists here to create the sound that Rick did alone, and with an extra guitarist here, you think they could do better than when it was just Paul and Bruce, but it isn't.
Yeah... his current band is fine playing his solo stuff (although I really miss Steve White, his new drummer is so sloppy!) but they feel like old men playing The Jam... and Weller is the oldest one, ironically. It feels like they don't inspire Weller.
There will never ever be anotherband like the jam. Ive loved weller for over 40 odd years, but bruce and rick were such an integral part of the greatest ever band. And having seen the modfather loads of times live, its still even now, appropriate that the biggest cheers r always for jam songs. Simply cos its wellers greatest legacy.
Pete Townshend maybe didn't do anything relevant past that age, but Paul Weller arguably made some his best material with The Style council and during his solo career.
@strangedaysindeed9 I was 15 when The Jam split up and think The Jam had 6 more yrs in them,seen Weller many tines and he only truly gets the audience going when he does a Jam song tbh!
@@paulweller3179 I think so as well, but at least they went out with a bang with a full flawless catalogue. I'm not a fan of the larger part of Weller's solo setlist choices, but I think there are a lot of gems to be found across albums.
@@strangedaysindeed9 fair comment,From the floorboards up really could have been a Jam single and the guy has influenced every decent British guitar band since 82 in fairness!
