Whilst I agree with some of what you say, I don't like his solo 
stuff much, but love Style Council.  Also OCS are shite, but some of 
your points are well(er) off the mark
 
> 1.  had shit fashion sense
this is a joke surely as this has improved immensly with age, 
unless you think jumpers with paper arrows are tasteful.  Likewise 
skinny half mast keks with white socks.  S

> 2.  had shittier hair
with a couple of exceptions in the past part see point 1 


> 7.  has been an asshole to poor old Bruce and and Rick, the real backbone of
> his success
now this has gotta be a windup, they were only sore cos he split up 
when he did and they wanted to milk the Jam cash cow.  One of the 
main  reasons The Jam have such a legacy is cos Weller split them up 
at the right time.  Since then both of them have done cock all and 
tried to cash in on The Jam with books etc.  Whatfor eg has Foxton 
done since Jam days, oh yes sings Smithers Jones with Stiff Little 
Fingers for the last 10 years, ha ha

Sure I agrre that these days his crows are made up for th most part 
of fawning nostalgia ridden old blokes and I don't listen to his new 
stuff at all.  Still think its more dignified than him knocking out 
Bricks & Mortar adfinitium

on a related note has anyone else heard that Basement Jaxx bootleh 
which samples Start, its a monster tune

cheers
Dominic
