Paul Weller’s An Orchestrated Songbook will be released on 10 December 2021 (was 3 Dec). Why the record label choose to wait a couple of weeks before announcing this is anyone’s guess. Update 5 July 2021: The 2LP vinyl has now been announced and it will be issued on the same date as the CD. An Orchestrated Songbook by Paul Weller, Tom Doyle, Steve Cradock, Simon Hale CD 29. ![]() It comes in a hardback DVD-sized casebound 32-page book, with “inserts” – nice enough – but it’s literally DOUBLE the price of the standard CD, so doesn’t come recommended. There is a deluxe CD edition but it contains the same audio as the standard CD only with better packaging. CDs can be manufactured and out the door in 2-3 weeks, so the wait until December is purely ‘strategic’, one assumes. Six months is apparently not enough time to deliver a vinyl version of this album, so it will be announced “at a later date”. Gee, thanks!Īnd so far, it has only been announced on CD, as if to underline the crazy vinyl manufacturing situation. An Orchestrated Songbook is performed by Weller with Jules Buckley & The BBC Symphony Orchestra. An Orchestrated Songbook is the new album by Paul Weller with Jules Buckley & The BBC Symphony Orchestra, released on 3 December 2021 through Polydor Records. It seems that Paul’s ‘team’ want to take advantage of the current Orchestrated Songbook ‘buzz’ by getting pre-orders available, but not actually give you the record for another six months, because they are still promoting Fat Pop. Polydor are to release a new Paul Weller live album. If it seems messy – Polydor promoting a new live album when Fat Pop has only just been pushed out the door – then I should point out that this live album isn’t actually released until December, which is faintly ridiculous, given we are still in June. ![]() Boy George joins Paul Weller for a performance of The Style Council’s ‘You’re The Best Thing’
