Product Description
Paul Weller – Lawdy Rolla / Pinball (7″ Single)
RELEASE DATE: 20th June 2025
Paul Weller lifts the lid on his album Find El Dorado with the release of its first single, ‘Lawdy Rolla’ — a striking double-header that also includes a fresh take on ‘Pinball’.
More than just covers, these tracks reflect Weller’s ongoing relationship with the songs that have shaped him. ‘Lawdy Rolla’ is delivered with soulful restraint, allowing its bluesy undercurrents to rise through crisp, stripped-back production. ‘Pinball’, originally by Brian Protheroe, is reimagined with tender introspection, revealing new emotional weight in its familiar lines.
Both tracks speak to the spirit of reinterpretation that guides the wider project — not just homage, but rediscovery. Produced by Steve Cradock and featuring subtle contributions from a close circle of collaborators, the single sets the tone for an album that blurs the lines between memory, influence and reinvention.
