2017 marks the 40th anniversary of Paul Weller’s first album, In The City, which he released with The Jam in May 1977.
For most artists such a landmark would be greeted with extensive retrospective celebrations: lavish reissues and all that jazz.
But instead Paul released his eagerly awaited 13th studio album, A Kind Revolution, and announced a UK Arena tour for 2018.
This culminated in a last Thursdays eagerly awaited show at the Motorpoint Arena in Cardiff.
His two-hour gig took in new songs from "A Kind Revolution" as well as memorable songs from The Jam days.
Songs included From the Floorboards Up, Peacock Suit, That’s Entertainment as well as a superb acoustic set which included the drummer singing and playing guitar.
His final song of the evening "A Town Called Malice’" literally brought the house down and left the crowd baying for more.
