The Story Behind Paul Weller's New Album '66': An Interview with Jack O Peake


Paul Weller is back with his 17th solo studio album, '66'. To celebrate, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Jacko Peake, the talented saxophonist and flautist from the Paul Weller Band, to delve into the making of this extraordinary album.


Jacko shares his experiences and insights into the creative process behind '66'.

His involvement adds a unique dimension to the music, blending seamlessly with the other instruments and vocals.


Jacko also reflects on the evolution of the band's sound over the years. Comparing the current touring experience to the early '90s, he notes how the band has become more focused and less chaotic. "People just want to make sure the gigs are really good and everyone wants to be on the top of their game," he says. This dedication to excellence is evident in the live performances, where the energy and passion of the band members create an unforgettable experience for the audience.


Another fascinating aspect of our discussion was the process of remote recording. Jacko explains how he recorded some of his parts from home, sending them over to Paul and the production team.


We also touched on some of the standout tracks from '66', including "Burnout" and "Sleepy Hollow". Jacko describes how these songs evolved from initial ideas into fully-fledged songs. The collaborative sessions with Paul and other musicians, such as Max Beesley, resulted in a rich tapestry of sounds and textures that make '66' a truly eclectic album.
