Biography
The band showed a diversity of musical styles. Singles “Speak Like a Child” (with its loud soul-influenced style), the extended funk of “Money-Go-Round”, and the haunting synth-ballad “Long Hot Summer” all featured Talbot on keyboards and organ. Near the end of 1983, these songs were compiled on Introducing The Style Council, a mini-album initially released in Japan, the Netherlands, and the United States only. The Dutch version was heavily imported to the United Kingdom.
In 1984, the single “My Ever-Changing Moods”, backed with the Hammond organ instrumental “Mick’s Company”, reached #29 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. The song remains Weller’s greatest success on the American charts (including his efforts in The Jam and as a solo artist), while the group reached the peak of its success in the United Kingdom with the 1985 album Our Favourite Shop.

Was on a Weller kick... forgot how many of these tunes I had in vinyl... back in the day when an artist had to create a great tune for each track... otherwise the album never made it.

I can't decide which of the many compilations that are available for this band! Can anyone help me choose which is the definitive collection? I'm thinking of either "Greatest Hits" or "Sweet Loving Ways", one is cheaper than the other, but the other has more songs.

Comparing the two bands is like comparing Buffalo Springfield with Poco. Consequently, the Style Council is just ridiculously underrated (much like Furay-era Poco). 'My Ever Changing Moods' is definitely due for a revival.
