PAUL WELLER Music From The Film Jawbone (2017 UK/EU 6-track vinyl LP, an original score by Paul Weller for the Johnny Harris film. This album is a collection quite unlike anything else from Paul Weller’s extensive discography as you can hear on the album’s sprawling 21-minute opener ‘Jimmy / Blackout’, an experimental sound collage which provides much of the film’s score and underlying mood. Retro-style flipback picture sleeve. Although not sealed, this example remains in a 'near as n Tracklisting & Info:Paul Weller releases his first ever soundtrack, to the forthcoming British movie, Jawbone. The film’s star (and writer / co-producer), the Bafta-nominated actor 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 from Paul Weller’s extensive discography as you can hear on the album’s sprawling 21-minute opener ‘Jimmy / Blackout’, an experimental sound collage which provides much of the film’s score and underlying mood.‘Jimmy / Blackout’ segues across a variety of different and often dissonant tones, its eclectic tapestry of sounds flourishes and fractures with choral vocal harmonies, bursts of droning guitar and the swirl of vintage synthesisers, but on track 2, ‘The Ballad of Jimmy McCabe’, we find Paul in more familiar territory with a beautiful acoustic song, which reflects the situation and emotional turmoil that’s troubling Johnny Harris’s lead character.TracklistA1 Jimmy/Blackout B1 The Ballad of Jimmy McCabe B2 Jawbone B3 Bottle B4 Jawbone Training B5 Man on Fire B6 End Fight SequenceYear of Release – 2017Format – vinyl LP album (LP record)Record Label – ParlophoneCatalogue No – 190295866020Country of Origin – United KingdomBarcode – 190295866020
