Vernon Brings The Big Tunes!

'The Modfather' himself Paul Weller picks his favourite songs on Tracks Of My Years. There's another round of Ten To The Top, plus Album and Record Of The Week.

Known as 'The Modfather' and one of the most revered writers and performers of the past five decades, Paul Weller shares more of his favourite song choices on Tracks Of My Years.

He鈥檚 released 28 albums to date, and Paul鈥檚 17th solo album '66' was released earlier in the summer to huge acclaim. Following his recent UK dates, he鈥檚 off on his first North American tour in seven years in September, as well as another UK run in October and November.
