Various Artists: Paul Weller Presents That Sweet Sweet Music (Vinyl 2xLP)

Paul Weller has teamed up with the good folks at Ace Records for a fabulous new compilation jam packed with 26 of his favourite Soul tunes, most of which are nestled in his own vinyl collection.

Soul music has always been in Paul Weller’s blood from early Jam covers of Martha & the Vandellas 1963 classic ‘Heatwave’. Along with other forms of music, soul found its way into Paul’s record collection, nourishing his ears and informing his own songwriting.
