The Style Council were awesome! LOL I was hooked from the very first notes of "My Ever Changing Moods". I know some people think that the Jam's music was more... I don't know.. hardcore... but their sound changed over time and the leap from "A Town Called Malice" to "My Ever Changing Moods" isn't a big one. I thought their stuff was really melodic - I love "You're The Best Thing", "Walls Come Tumbling Down", and "Shout To The Top" to name a few off the top of my head. Paul's solo career has had its interesting highlights ""It's Written In The Stars" definitely being one of them) but I will always love his work in SC the best.

It's just as good as I remember.<br><br>My college roommate had a big collection of Barbra songs, which I, on instinct, immediately rejected and would make fun of him for. His defense was that his father was a dentist and he grew up on a steady diet of "lite rock" and Muzak around the dental office while growing up and that kind of music is what he was comfortable with. It's only as I've grown older, that I have been able to look past my initial distaste for Babs and can appreciate (some) of her work, especially the "Guilty" and "Broadway" albums. If my old roommate could only hear me now...ha Wow, thanks Dave…I recall really liking “Dinner with Gershwin” when it came out, but I'm not sure I have heard it since.
