THE STYLE COUNCIL: THE COMPLETE ADVENTURES OF VOL. 5 W/ SIGNED ARTWORK (DEE C. LEE)
Album Features
Title:
The Style Council: The Complete Adventures Of Vol 5
Record Label:
Polydor Ltd.
Release Year:
1989
Cat No:
Country:
UK
Genre:
Pop
Style:
Sophisti-pop / Jazz-funk / Soul
THE STYLE COUNCIL were formed by Paul Weller, the former leader of The Jam, together with keyboardist Mick Talbot, and frequently featured vocalist Dee C. Lee among a rotating cast of collaborators. Drawing on pop songwriting as their backbone, the band wove in soul, jazz and funk influences to craft a polished, melodic sound marked by sophisticated arrangements and thoughtful, socially conscious lyrics. Their willingness to experiment across genres while keeping strong melodic hooks made them a distinctive voice in late-80s British pop, helping to bridge club-friendly rhythms with more reflective, song-based material.
This release collects late-80s versions and single edits from the band’s catalogue, spotlighting alternate and extended takes that emphasize their studio creativity and the era’s remix culture. Highlights include the longer version of PROMISED LAND and the Long Hot Summer ’89 edit, which underline how tracks were reshaped for dancefloors and radio alike. Sleeve credits list production by The Style Council with publishing tied to Polydor and EMI-related companies, confirming the official nature of the compilation and offering a neat snapshot of the band’s late-period output—ranging from rhythm-driven grooves to more introspective, soul-tinged pieces.
For fans and newcomers alike, this selection serves as a useful overview of the group’s musical breadth: it showcases tight musicianship, strong vocal performances (notably Dee C. Lee’s contributions), and the band’s knack for blending sophistication with accessibility. Collectors will appreciate the alternate mixes for the way they reveal different facets of familiar songs, while listeners interested in refined pop arrangements and jazz/soul-inflected songwriting will find the compilation a representative and enjoyable entry point into The Style Council’s legacy.
Tracks licensed and published through Polydor Ltd and associated publishers. Production credits on the sleeve include The Style Council and Paul Weller; publishing references include EMI Music Publishing and Notting Hill Music (UK) Ltd.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
