Paul Weller - An Orchestrated Songbook: Paul Weller with Jules Buckley & the BBC Symphony Orchestra
Description
This extraordinary performance was a first for Paul, performing with a full orchestra, and saw a quintessential selection of his vast catalogue exquisitely reworked and updated into 75 minutes of breath-taking music that was broadcast across the BBC.
+ Deluxe CD includes a hardback book.
+ Heavyweight double LP in heavyweight tip-on gatefold sleeve with 8-page booklet.
Alongside the orchestra, Paul was also accompanied by long-term collaborator and guitarist Steve Cradock. This eclectic assortment of compositions from Paul’s illustrious career, invigorated by Jules Bickley’s sumptuous arrangements made for a visual and aural delight.
