Mojo: The Collectors Series: Paul Weller

MOJO is delighted to present its finest writing on PAUL WELLER, legendary British solo artist and leader of The Jam and The Style Council.

Featuring insightful stories and classic interviews, and illustrated with dozens of rare and iconic photographs, this deluxe 132-page magazine charts Weller’s eventful journey from his days as a fiery teenager fronting New Wave sensations The Jam in the late ’70s, to his dramatic reinvention as a blue-eyed soul boy in The Style Council in the 1980s. The in-depth features include an account of Paul’s struggle in 1978 to overcome writer’s block and create his first masterpiece, The Jam’s All Mod Cons album; the story of how he sensationally split The Jam at the peak of their fame to pursue his love for soul, jazz and political activism; and the salutary tale of how The Style Council’s bid to make ever more daring music in the ’80s eventually spelt their downfall.
