Synopsis
The 30th anniversary of the release of The Jam's first single In The City, which was originally issued on 29th April 1977 has recently passed. To celebrate this milestone, a revised 648 page A5 paperback version of Porcelain God is now available for order.
The 2007 Version of the Paul Weller documentary, "Porcelain God", is a definitive guide to the music career of one of the UK's greatest ever Singer/Songwriters. It is not a biography, it covers in painstaking detail, Paul's career from his earliest days in the Jam through to 2007 and is probably the sort of anoraks guide that Paul would hate and see as totally pointless. If however, you are a fan and want a complete recording database of over 550 Jam, Style Council and Paul Weller songs or want to have a reference guide to his career, then this may be the book for you.
