Catch-Flame! by Paul Weller


Album Reviews - Catch-Flame! by Paul Weller

There is a fantastic but probably untrue anecdote about Paul Weller ripped to the tits at a showbiz party, tearing off his shirt and running around the garden chanting "WELLA FELLA WELLA FELLA!” Sadly. It’s more entertaining than a good 60 per cent of this 23 track live set. but when he does occasionally spark in his earnest, sweaty way. it’s difficult not to get carried along in his slipstream. There's a five song run from the blistering 'From The Floorboards Up' to 'Up In Suze's Room' which is pure Spencer Davis-style steamhammer R’n'B, but he ruins it with a snoozesome cover of Dr John’s 'I Walk On Gilded Splinters’, and a two track Style Council encore. Kick out the jams. Wellafella  that’s a suggestion, not a comparison.
