Comment:
A few years ago, I was in a touring theatre company. One night, as I was driving one of our vans along one of our nation's fine interstates to our next show, I was listening to a mix I'd made when a fellow cast member excitedly asked me if we were listening to The Style Council. It turns out she had remembered "Shout to the Top" from her high school days, but hadn't heard them since. So I had to rectify the situation with yet another mix tape.Feedback:
This is wonderful. It has most of my favorites and some I'm not familiar with.
I've also done my share of bonding over The Style Council: Not that many people have heard of them (their loss!) but the ones that do know who they are unanimously think they're awesome. I had a roommate who was quite surprised find out that the tape that I was playing so often was not , in fact, a black soul group! Their music is so diverse that they easily keep you guessing through two sides of a tape--as your mix tape nicely demonstrates! My brother (who introduced me to The Style Council and The Jam) braved the blizzard that hit the east coast in February -- that lived up to storms from my time in Chicago--to see Weller play the 9:30 Club. It was a great show! Steve White was drumming and they did "The Long Hot Summer"! No such luck with "The Paris Match" but there's always the next tour....
