Featuring some of his favourite collaborators including Mick Talbot of The Style Council, Ocean Colour Scene’s Steve Cradock, The Young Disciples’ Marco Nelson and Carleen Anderson, Stanley Road was a commercial highlight for Weller. Unashamedly mod, unashamedly retro, it connected The Who, The Small Faces, Southern soul and seventies hippie folk-rock. The searing guitar solo on ‘The Changingman’ is one of the most confident, assured statements of musical intent you’ll hear. Elsewhere, Weller effortlessly drops in classics like ‘You Do Something To Me,’ one of the finest ballads of the ’90s.
