Triple vinyl LP pressing. When Paul Weller announced The Style Council's arrival in March 1983, he'd come a very long way. In fact, at the age of just 24, he was already a musical veteran with six albums and nine Top 10 singles under his belt with The Jam. As their leader he had become a deity-like figure and for his fans, The Jam's split was unimaginable. But creatively restless and of inquisitive mind, Paul jettisoned them at their height to form a collective with an eventual core line-up of Paul with Mick Talbot, Dee C Lee and Steve White. Over four albums and 17 singles, The Style Council made a stand and became the standard bearers of progressive soulful pop and social comment. This is their story.
Long Hot Summers also includes two unreleased tracks: a demo version of “My Ever Changing Moods” with orchestral arrangement, and an extended version of “Dropping Bombs On The Whitehouse”. Of course there are all of the band's classic singles along with other tracks from their albums and fan-favorite tracks like "Headstart For Happiness". It features rare photos, an introduction by Paul Weller, an essay by Lois Wilson and liner notes by super fan, actor Martin Freeman. The album was remastered at Abbey Road Studios.
