Superb!!

But this a great collection - if you love live and different version of Weller classics buy it!. I'm a Weller fan and have all his albums.


The definitive release of Wild Wood, thank you UMG UK and Yep Rock!!!
Soooo, what's to say? Top-notch remastering, B-side and demo bonus tracks up the wazoo, well written booklet with great photos. I bought the UK release prior to Yep Rock release in the US; same mastering and similar packaging. . . 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.


I'd go to the ends of the earth for this edition
Though he's had some excellent albums later, nothing compares to the energy of "Wild Wood. "Wild Wood" is definitely thicker, earthier, and groovier than Weller's solo debut. " 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 demos on the second disc are also worth checking out. Even if you have the previous edition, this one won't disappoint.


Yes you need it.
The re-mastered disc is worth the price alone in my opinion, sounds much better to my ears. Wondering if you really need it? So was I as I already had several copies of the original in different formats. 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 with the sound of MP3s and ipods with crappy earbuds and already own a copy of Wildwood, then the extra expense may not be worth it. But please, take the earbuds out and do some critical listening! Hope this helps. .


The Modfather's Triumphant Return to Form
1993's "Wildwood" was the comeback that all of his fans wanted and the final nail in the coffin of doubt that anyone may
have had abput his ability. In the 1980's, Paul Weller went from being lionized to being loathed by the British musical press. This remastered and expanded version captures the glory and passion of his greatest work.
