  The Style Council - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Style Council was a English musical group formed in 1983 by ex-The Jam singer and guitarist Paul Weller with keyboardist Mick Talbot.
The Style Council took a more overtly political approach than The Jam in their lyrics, with tracks such as The Lodgers, and Come To Milton Keynes being deliberate attacks on "Middle England" and the Thatcherite principles which were prevalent in the '80s.
The Style Council broke up after recording an acid house album, Modernism: A New Decade that was rejected by their record label.

With the Style Council, the underlying intellectual pretensions that ran throughout Weller's music came to the forefront.
As his pretensions increased, the number of hits the Style Council had decreased; by the end of the decade, the group was barely able to crack the British Top 40 and Weller had turned from a hero into a has-been.
The Style Council released their first full-length album, Cafe Bleu, in March of 1984; two months later, a resequenced version of the record, retitled My Ever Changing Moods, was released in America.

 Cabinet-style council - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Cabinet-style Council is a type of local government which has been introduced in the United Kingdom for Local Councils in recent years.
The Leader and Cabinet are responsible for policies, plans and strategies, and for recommending them to the overall Council, which is of course convened as a whole, at regular council meetings.
The Standards Committee ensures the standards of conduct are set and adhered to and the Scrutiny Committee holds the Cabinet to account for its decisions and is responsible that the democratic checks and balances are maintained.

 Acid Jazz Pioneers -- The Style Council   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The Style Council were one of the most influential forerunners of today's Acid-Jazz scene.
Early TSC was more playful and energetic, but as the band and Weller in particular matured, the music mellowed like a fine wine, without losing any of it's potency.
The Style Council were more than just a band, they were the modernist ideal, a collective of individuals whose own personal styles were continental and international, and all the time had that certain lounge feel that was slick and sophisticated, somehow so cool as to almost be unreachable for us average blokes.

For, vastly misunderstood though they sometimes were, TSC must rank as one of the most inspired, exhilarating and, lest we forget resolutely political pop-groups ever to emerge from these shores.
The Style Council's birth in 1983 had coincided with the beginning of Thatcher's second term in office, and from the start Paul was outspoken in his criticism of her Tory government - both in interviews and in his lyrics.
In the event, The Style Council became instrumental in making the all-star socialist pressure group, Red Wedge, a real force to be reckoned with in the run up to the 1987 election.

Weller was by now getting involved in house music, and when he presented his label with the tapes of the next TSC album, a dance- orientated collection titled Modernism: A New Decade, they refused to release it.
As the sons and daughters of that first post-war generation, many of The Style council's original fans tack it for granted that music had the power to change the world.
Standing in a muddy field, watching The Style Council bash out their jazzy protest pop was a nape-chilling experience.
