SummersRadio™ Classic! The Style Council!

SummersRadio™ Classic! The Style Council - 'Long Hot Summer' (Extended Version) So this is the last long weekend of summer - although it seems a bit soon since the summer sun didn't arrive until the start of August in Vancouver this year! Technically we still have a few more weeks to enjoy, but it seems like a good time to reflect back on how it's been. There are certain songs that are synonymous with the season - including The Style Council's 'Long Hot Summer'.

After disbanding The Jam in 1982 Paul Weller went on to form The Style Council in 1983 with keyboardist Mick Talbot - formerly of Dexy's Midnight Runners. 'Long Hot Summer' was their third (and most successful) single - which was later included on their debut mini album called 'Introducing The Style Council'. I love the bass sound - and how the keyboard bits sort of hover over the song - this the somewhat rare 'Extended Version' (clocking in at nearly seven minutes of chilled bliss!) of 'Long Hot Summer'... Enjoy!
