Record On is a 3-part series exploring the context of the times around the making of a ground-breaking album by the world’s most prominent artists.

Each episode looks at the motivations of the artists to write and record the album they did at that particular moment in time and how that album came to reflect those times, becoming a cultural icon in itself.

The series takes its tone from the social, cultural and political focus of what was happening around the time each album was written and recorded and how this is reflected in the artists’ music and the performance.

Record On: Paul Weller – Wild Wood examines Paul Weller’s human journey through changing times in the early 1990’s, the new direction in sound that he found and the resulting tour de force that is Wild Wood.

In contrast to the business-driven commercial pop songs that populated the charts across the UK and Europe in the early 1990's, Paul Weller was driven to reach for a more analogue sound for Wild Wood, resulting in a more organic feel and a return to his roots.

The film explores the track Wild Wood - a metaphor to life in the cities (and his move from city life to a more rural-England as he enters middle-age); Sunflower, a love song wrapped up inside a solid-rock composition and Moon on Your Pyjamas as a love-letter from a father to a son - Paul’s song to his then-young son.
