Will Of The People collects B-sides, remixes and stray recordings Paul Weller made between 2002 and 2021 that never made it onto a studio album. He compiled the thirty-one tracks himself; after Fly On The Wall in 2003 this is his second set of the kind. It holds demos, a cover of The Beatles' Birthday recorded for Paul McCartney's seventieth birthday, and remixes by the Pet Shop Boys (Cosmic Fringes) and Young Fathers (Saturns Pattern) among others. Writer and broadcaster John Wilson supplied the sleeve notes. The set came out in October 2022 through UMC.
This edition is a 3-LP, in a limited pressing.
