<p>Another 30th Anniversary episode for the Memorabilia Podcast, and this time it&#39;s &#39;The Modfather&#39; Paul Weller and his second solo album release from September 1993, the Mercury Music Prize nominated &#39;Wild Wood&#39;. The critically acclaimed record signalled his return to favour after the Style Council&#39;s fall in popularity at the end of the 80&#39;s, and the mixed reaction to his first solo release, 1992&#39;s &#39;Paul Weller&#39;. We discover Weller&#39;s pathway into his musical journey with the Jam, through to working on this album with a number of familiar musicians to help him out along the way.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Our Top 3&#39;s this week are tree related songs! It gets a little contentious, but there are some belting selections amongst our picks, including The Beatles, Radiohead, The Presidents of the USA, and The National. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Rick&#39;s song of the Week: &#39;Take it or leave it&#39;, by RedFaces: https://youtu.be/z66u6G0u_Cw?si=9eCwqGgH6HvAf4gw</p> <p><br></p> <p>Kate&#39;s song of the week: &#39;Kerosene&#39;, by Big Black: https://youtu.be/ZLr5EXyoQCE?si=HCAHhPVlsz-hupua</p> <p><br></p> <p>Ian Prowse&#39;s cover of Bruce Springsteen&#39;s &#39;Rosalita (come out tonight)&#39; featuring Steve White on drums: https://youtu.be/4UhhqLKyaIk?si=5hFXqO9EeeRlr4H6 </p> <p><br></p> <p> To help us to grow our audience of like-minded music fans, please subscribe to our indie podcast on your listening platform of choice, share links with your friends and family, we&#39;d REALLY appreciate it if you could take a minute to leave us a review/rating on Spotify, and/or Apple Podcasts.
