No chance, can't really say who I would choose but listen to Sympathy for the devil, Weller has not written anything near, don't get me wrong Weller has been a class act but your statement is flawed and bias IMO.
Written in 1968 mate when the Stones were at their peak. Their output then declined as is the norm. Weller wrote better/equal at his peak.

good post.

Weller is brilliant, no doubt. However to call him the best songwriter this country has ever produced is well wide of the mark

Been going 35 years or so, last couple of albums sound fresh as fuck. Loads of different type of songs, hasn't relied on the same sound for 35 years. Reinvented himself a couple of times. Could be argued he is as relevant now as he was when he first started

The best for me, but then again I am biased ;)

Can't think of anyone who comes close in terms of songwriting over such a prolonged period.

Played Wild wood through yesterday for the first time in a little while, sounded class still. Got a bit running about to do up Peterlee then think I will hoy 'All mod cons' to help while away a lazy afternoon:cool:

Might dig out his debut album this afternoon like. Remember seeing him on the chart show one Saturday afternoon and Uh Huh Oh Yeah came on, didn't seem to get much press so was a bit of a surprise.
