Talking Weller: Paul McCartney, Noel Gallagher, Miles Kane and Steve Cradock

[@BHAKTIBROPHY]

It's been an honor watching Weller's musical genius evolve over the past 33 years. The most wondrous thing is that The Jam songs are just as great as the new music: He's always been great, since the beginning. And he's still the coolest looking guy in the world.

[@revol148]

+BHAKTI BROPHY Paul is that you?

[@jonhadley-zx2iu]

I think that its good that Weller is still involved & making music However, his latest music does really do much for me!

[@kimtaylor7940]

Paul Weller is an amazing Artist. Brilliant writer, still so so relevant. He's really becoming humble as he ages. Love ya mate - thanks for the memories.

[@andyrangersoasis]

McCartney has every right to be up his own arse. He was in the greatest band of all time, he's one the greatest singers of all time, one of the best bassists of all time...the list goes on.

[@TCB-hz8ew]

I agree. .. And nobody loved the Beatles more than PW.

[@jacobwarren3023]

+TCB1965 nobody loves the Beatles like macca does

[@PaulMurphyMusic]

Definitely one of the best songwriters of all time and has an interesting voice for sure, never thought he was great solo artist though, his voice isn't quite as special as John Lennon for me.

4 Great people, a Beatle, a High Flying Bird, a Shadow Puppet and an OCS member talking about one of the finest musicians in british history!

[@KINGMONKEY1989]

And an Oasis member now they have finally got back together. What a line up though as you say. Miles was a Rascal to before he became a Shadow puppet 😁👍

[@andrewisotope8146]

When a former Beatle praises your work in the business 'you've been in for 40 plus years' then you know you've done very well' he always has been a professional of the music industry of the highest order as hes stood 'and is still standing' the test of time. a national treasure who knows his way around and what hes doing.

[@Mff48]

Andrew you hit the nail on the head he has indeed become a national treasure! He surely is one of the most revered and respected figures in the music industry!!!

[@daveshaw2648]

Cradock, brilliant musician and makes a lovely cup of tea.

[@edwardmulholland7912]

His last album Sonik Kicks was great, maybe even his best. Many of My friends are superfans of his and didnt like it at all, I knew that I had to buy it and find out for myself. The man is an artist in the true sense of the word. He is also a cool looking dude. Paul, I salute you Sir!

[@malpreece5008]

Weller is a legend! Quick correction for Macca…the first time he met Weller was in 1982 when they did a photo shoot together for Smash Hits magazine! It’s all good though, memory fades over time, and Sir Paul is still doing well for a man in his 80s. 👍🏻

Weller in my eyes surpasses McCartney and the rest because of the magic he is still producing at 60 years old, listen to his new 2018 offering True Meanings and you will understand.

[@spence7985]

im assuming your eyes arent focusing on the mountain, and im talking everest, of music that will be iconic hundreds of years from now. i can appreciate your comment, but lets not get senile

[@digiface]

@@spence7985 nope that's exactly what he was focusing on. McCartney's written some great songs and has his own mountain of work but he's half dick .. it seemed to increase with age, beatles went to his head. Everything Weller did in The Jam, the first 5 years of the Style Council, everything he did in the 90's and almost half the stuff since 2000 is brilliant, sometimes unbelievably so. After 2000 Weller's struggled I think, except with True Meanings which I'd class as a proper album again with it's own feel and at least half the songs on the record are truly great

[@theloniouscoltrane3778]

@@digiface almost EVERYONE knows the Beatles song mostly written by Paul...yesterday, hey jude, let it be? What about Weller? Can Everyone name 3 songs he wrote off the bat? Yes, we don't think so. Weller is great. But Macca is Zeus.

[@digiface]

​@@theloniouscoltrane3778 Well you clearly haven't understood what's being said but since when did the lowest common denominator become the best? Who's 'everyone' anyway? I don't know about where you live but in the UK many kids now would struggle to name one beatles song, let alone three written by paul. But they couldn't name any paul weller songs either. I love those songs you've put, they're absolutely great, but they're all from 50 years ago now.

Stuart Cook Macca's been a bit up to his arse since 80s what Ive watched his interviews, tho is also one of the few people in the world can get away with it :D really!

[@StuartCook]

JonnyKasabian Yep. He's been working on revisionism pretty much since Lennon died. It's all about leaving a legacy of him been equally as cool and hip as John.

[@ChainNonSmoker]

Then again Seems he's kind of pop to John's rock Maybe a bit more talented musically - at least what comes to melodies etc. less revolutionary than john tho, but he's got wider knowledge of music) what u think ?

[@StuartCook]

JonnyKasabian I think Macca was very cool in his own way and very much his own man. He has no need to try to revise history - his place in history was sealed years ago.

Some crap talk on here, the beatles were amazing in a time of non bands, maybe the stones and kinks etc. The jam, style council etc had competition i.e start of disco, return of soul, ska, punk etc ,Weller is the best song writer ever, been going for 40 years and still going cos the guy loves his music. I watched and lived the jam for 7 years, even met the famous 3 paul bruce and rick backstage many times. Beats the shit music nowadays, listen to A VERY DEEP SEA the guy is the bollocks END OF!

[@AnyoneCanSee]

Did he say anything that is wrong? Many would consider him to be the greatest song writer in the history of Rock and Roll. He is certainly the greatest living singer songwriter in Rock and Roll, so saying he can "write a song" is hardly praising himself. It is stating a fact.

I don't know if he's doing it on purpose, but Macca seems to keep name-dropping people. I've never really understood how Macca and Weller could get on, considering that most people can't name any new songs by Macca that are from the last twenty years, while Weller always seems to be evolving, although I'm a bit biased since I'm a massive Jam Fan rather than a Wings fam. That's just my opinion, and is in no way intended to offend Sir Paul McCartney or his fans.
