Paul Weller - Jawbone (Music From The Film) (LP)

N/A

March 10 sees Paul Weller release his first ever soundtrack, to the forthcoming British movie Jawbone. The film'€™s star (and writer/co-producer) Johnny Harris approached Paul a few years ago through a mutual friend, on the off-chance that he might be interested. At that point, all that existed was a script - no cast and no budget - but Weller was keen almost immediately and a great partnership (and friendship) was forged.

Jawbone: Music From The Film€™ is a collection quite unlike anything else in Weller'€™s extensive discography, as you can hear on the sprawling 21-minute opener Jimmy/Blackout, an experimental sound collage which provides much of the film'€™s score and underlying mood.
