Paul Weller – Find El Dorado CD

Paul Weller – Find El Dorado

Paul Weller is back with "Find El Dorado" - a new, very personal album full of new interpretations.
Inspired by a lifelong passion for listening to music, Weller draws on songs that have been with him for years - now thought, heard anew, felt anew. "These are songs that I've been carrying around with me for a long time," he says. "They have changed over time. And now the time seemed right to share them with others."

The release also marks a new chapter in Weller's impressive career. A defining figure in British music - with around 11 million albums sold in the UK alone - Weller returns to Parlophone Records, the label that handled his critically acclaimed albums between 2015 and 2019.

If you can lose yourself in music, Weller shows here that you can just as easily find yourself in it. "Find El Dorado" is far more than a classic cover album - it is an emotional map of his musical DNA. From the gentle melancholy of Ray Davies' "Nobody's Fool" to the shimmering pain of "El Dorado": These songs have shaped Weller's inner life - and are now finding their way back out. With intimate arrangements and strong collaborations - including Hannah Peel, Declan O'Rourke, Robert Plant, Seckou Keita, Amelia Coburn and Noel Gallagher - Weller opens the door to his very personal song world. "Find El Dorado" is his most thoughtful album - and an impressive plea for great songs not to age, but to evolve.
