(Paul Weller - Thirty years and no sign of a letup)

I have always been a fan of Paul Weller, whether it's him solo, as The Style Council or The Jam. It struck me as strange that The Jam in their heyday wasn't as well known over here in the States as they were in the UK or Europe - or why Weller isn't that better known over here now is still something of a mystery.

But the ones who do know him and know his work and have enjoyed what he's been doing the past 30+ years appreciate hearing him any chance they get. And you know who you are.

So tonight I'm running, as part of our Fundraiser a concert Weller gave at Guilfest in 2005.

Classic Weller in fine form - still performing and still recording. Still sounding fresh as ever.

Enjoy.

Oh and um . . .while you're doing that, if you can, put something in the kitty below to keep this all going. Anything and everything helps and it is so appreciated.
