'These are photos of how it is: life on the road, life on stage... the reality of it. When he's with us, Lawrence becomes part of the band. We're all on the same mission.' – Paul Weller
Paul Weller and Lawrence Watson are signing each of the 2,000 numbered copies in this limited edition book and vinyl set.

Shoots have produced album covers such as Modern Classics 1 and 2, As Is Now and Studio 150. Videos have included 'The Changingman' and 'Out of the Sinking'.
'I thought it's time to do a book. Me and Lawrence have been working together for more than twenty years. The weirdest thing is that it doesn't seem that long.' - Paul Weller
