A World Of Paul Weller Rarities Surface

added 13 August 2003 at 12.02

Fresh from signing a new worldwide multi-album record deal with V2, Paul Weller has revealed details of a huge triple CD album of rarities, B-sides, cover versions, instrumentals and remixes complied from over his decade long solo career.

Whether the Modfather is happy that mere months after parting with his old label, the very same company, Island records, are putting out such a huge retrospective is unknown, but Weller fans won't be disappointed.

The three disc compilation, entitled 'Fly On The Wall - B-sides & Rarities 1991-2001' includes all Weller's non album output from his self titled 1991 solo debut all the way through to 2001's 'Heliocentric' album.

Included are the famous Lynch Mob remix of 'Kosmos', Weller's covers of The Beatles' 'Sexy Sadie', CSN&Y's 'Ohio' and John Lennon's 'Instant Karma'.
