Weller on Style Council
The members pf recently defunct beat combo the Jam have wasted no time getting involved in new ventures. Head face Paul Weller has formed the Style Council with former Dexys' organist Mick Talbot. Their first single 'Speak Like A Child'/'Party Chambers' has been released and is apparently a major departure from the timehonoured "Jam sound". Zeke of Orange Juice guested on drums. Weller intends to pick up more councillors as the year goes by. There are no album plans as yet just plenty of singles promised. Meanwhile Bruce Foxton is continuing with his band with former Vapours' members, Dave Fenton and Steve Smith and drummer Rick Buckler has formed a band called the Time with vocalist Jimmy Edwards.
