Paul Weller: Dancing Through the Fire

THE book on someone who's touched the lives of so many of us

'While Dancing Through The Fire isn't quite the autobiography that Weller-heads have been waiting for, it's pretty damn close.'

[An] extraordinary new oral history of the man and his music . . . It's a treasure trove of personal recollections, and the picture that emerges is of a band with an incredible connection to its fans that would be unimaginable today . . . Weller can't be tied down and won't sell out. Dancing Through the Fire offers a route to understand him, and the picture it presents is never less than surprising. We shouldn't have expected anything else

This is as close to a complete history of Paul Weller as you are going to get

What is the collective noun for a group of Weller fans? A 'jam'? Whatever it may be, Dan has brought them together in these pages, along with Paul Weller himself and all the musicians who've played with him for over fifty years, to tell the definitive story. A work of real journalistic dedication, perseverance and endeavour

This is as definitive an account of the artist as we have to date
