I caught the end of this track on the radio the other day and thought 'Hmm, did Paul Weller invent trip-hop?'. Sadly, the answer was no. It turned out to be a little known remix of Wild Wood by lazy gobshite (in the nicest possible way) Geoff Barrow aka Portishead.
It took me an age to track down via the old interblag but get it i did and here it is. Two great artists combining to make sweet, sweet music.
Paul Weller - Wild Wood (Portishead remix)
The Deluxe Edition of Wild Wood has recently been released. Weller doesn't need any more money or recognition but if you have a few pennies to spare in the run up to christmas you might like to buy it and sit contented around an open fire, scoffing mince pies and soaking up the sounds of a man who is slowly ruining his good reputation with each successive release. Bah, humbug the lot of ya.

N.B. I considered 'Weller, Weller, Weller huh?' as an alternative title but the Grease nod was just too much.
