I think it was at the astoria in leeds. the video had clips from other venues but my 2 mates are on the clip from the astoria. i unfortunately taped coronation street over boy was i gutted does the astoria clip ring a bell with anyone and is it still kicking around.

Hmmm ... Save for some low grade spinning, it's more akin to the front room scene in Quad?

ffs i forgot about that i fell out with a lot of mods in Edinburgh over that song they wanted me to play it for the dancefloor so i threw it on the floor for them ... happy days

well done roddy! they used to get on my nerves circa '79, but not as much as the "punks"! i never understood why they were called punks. my friends and i could always out anti-social any of them!!!

great stuff,love Weller in all his guises.............but just had a thought (off topic).

Was this one of the first tailor mades,of any credibility?.(forget Wigan's Ovation).

Did Weller get away with it cos he's a geezer and loves his Northern?.

Or did he suffer the wrath of the scene at the time , like new kids Amy and Duffo?

Oh wow, thanks for this topic. I have Style Council greatest hits and i have played and thought nothing of a northern tune. i might have to dig it out now.

Paul Weller is class and not forgetting the song he did with Andy Lewis which gets plays

He nicked I'm Ready For Love for a Town Called malice and So Is The Sun for Trans Global Express so it's not the first, he had previous.

No it's that John Alderton session in the Please Sir film.

Hi, I do have this on Video if I can dig it out, It was at the Astoria, It was a Documentary at around 1986, I am in the process of copying all onto DVD`s so when I get it out I will give you a shout.

Regards John

FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN THE VIDEO.

WASN'T AT A NORTHERN DO WITH NORTHERN DANCERS AS FAR AS I COULD SEE.

THEY WERE PROBABLY ALL FROM A LOCAL DRAMA SCHOOL AND HAND PICKED FOR THE VIDEO.

Brilliant track, cool video (even though he did throw the scooter to the ground)

I suppose it could be classed as a tailor made, it's just a faster version of "Stoned Love" really.

I too confess to liking the Style Council (there, i've said it!).

Most of them were scooter boys from South London - all my mates from the Merton Detours SC were in it. Only little Peter Grant was doing the northern scene in a big way at the time as far as I know, the rest were attending scooter & soul nights locally, and still do. They would have a right laugh at the drama school comment - they're mostly builders!

Love the Style Council, and never ashamed to say it. Weller was just paying homage to something he loves. That video takes me right back to when I was 16.

T x

i can't beleive this was 26 years ago!! i was a mere 10 years old, but remember it well...

fo some reason i thought weller didn't like this - prob cos when i saw them live in '83 they didn't sing it and i dont think he ever referred to it. i have no backing to my thoughts it's just pure conjecture.

brill video (now does the girl say to Mick what i think she says which is why he gets pissed off...)

awful scooter control

happy days

it was originally a Jam recording, but not released.
