No longer was he only 'Paul Weller of The Jam/Style Council', now he was the larger than life 'Modfather,' the patriarch of Britpop, championed by groups like Oasis and all things hip. Led by a renewed creative spark and expanded influences including Nick Drake, Traffic and even Crosby, Stills & Nash, Weller produced, according to Q Magazine, a 'pastoral coming of age masterpiece.' Wild Wood single-handedly defined Weller as a solo artist while simultaneously wrenching British rock from the grips of techno in the UK and the imposing influence of grunge from the west. This Deluxe Edition reissue includes a 32-page booklet with extensive new liner notes by Lois Wilson, including brand new interviews with Weller and others. Musically, there is an expanse of bonus material including b sides, demos, BBC session versions and unreleased tracks reinforcing the fact that Wild Wood, as Uncut Magazine put it, '...made the Modfather, and changed British rock.' Paul Weller deservedly regained his status as the Modfather with his second solo album, Wild Wood. Actually, the album is only tangentially related to mod, since Weller picks up on the classicism of his debut, adding heavy elements of pastoral British folk and Traffic-styled trippiness. Add to that a yearning introspection and a clean production that nevertheless feels a little rustic, even homemade, and the result is his first true masterwork since ending the Jam. The great irony of the record is that many of the songs -- 'Has My Fire Really Gone Out?,' 'Can You Heal Us (Holy Man)' -- question his motivation and, as is apparent in his spirited performances, he reawakened his music by writing these searching songs. Though this isn't as adventurous as the Style Council, it succeeds on its own terms, and winds up being a great testament from an artist entering middle age. And, it helped kick off the trad rock that dominated British music during the '90s. --All Music Guide Customers who bought this item also bought 22 Dreams Stanley Road Into Tomorrow Viva La Vida Jesus of Cool Customer Reviews for: Wild Wood - Deluxe Edition Rating - Superb!! I'm a Weller fan and have all his albums. But this a great collection - if you love live and different version of Weller classics buy it! Rating - The definitive release of Wild Wood, thank you UMG UK and Yep Rock!!! I bought the UK release prior to Yep Rock release in the US; same mastering and similar packaging. Soooo, what's to say? Top-notch remastering, B-side and demo bonus tracks up the wazoo, well written booklet with great photos... this is the one to get! Too bad Yep Rock didn't see fit to release the previously done UK deluxe version of Stanley Road (equally well done) as well. Rating - I'd go to the ends of the earth for this edition "Wild Wood" is definitely thicker, earthier, and groovier than Weller's solo debut. Though he's had some excellent albums later, nothing compares to the energy of "Wild Wood." By getting the regular edition of the album, one can experience this, but the real treat is in the b-sides and rarities. I remember him performing "Ends of the Earth" during a show back in 1993, so hearing it on Side One definitely places it in its musical context. Weller's ... Read More Rating - Yes you need it. Wondering if you really need it? So was I as I already had several copies of the original in different formats. The re-mastered disc is worth the price alone in my opinion, sounds much better to my ears. You also get the usual demos etc.. but these are only so-so IMHO. But as I said, the re-mastering is the key ingrediant here. If you have good equipment to play it on and take the time to really listen I think you will love it. If your'e satisfied ...
