True meanings

"After a burst of forward-thinking creativity, this dewy-eyed collection finds the Modfather back in pastoral mode ... Even when handing his music to other musicians to scrawl their lyrical signatures across, Weller makes 'True Meanings' sound deeply personal and intimate. Very nice... now back to the game-changing".

"A set of gentle pastoral songs, it finds him finally immersing himself in the singer-songwriterly fare that he's intermittently dipped into since 1978's English Rose. With backing from his regular band, plus guest spots from Martin Carthy and Rod Argent among others, Weller sounds at ease with this more introspective material, the lush orchestration acting as a perfect foil to his voice".
