Cafe Bleu (Blue Vinyl)

描述

Limited blue colored vinyl LP pressing. Café Bleu is the official debut album released by the English band The Style Council. It was released on 16 March 1984 on Polydor Records, produced by Paul Weller with Peter Wilson. It followed the compilation Introducing The Style Council, which was released only in the Netherlands, Canada, USA and Japan. The album was mainly recorded at Solid Bond Studios (owned by Weller) except for the strings which were recorded at CBS. Café Bleu included a large number of extra musicians, known as Honorary Councillors, including Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt from Everything but the Girl. The album represented a huge shift away from Weller's previous group The Jam and towards incorporating his favored elements of classic soul, jazz and rap. It was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
