Paul Weller has released his version of the Bee Gees 1968 classic ‘I Started A Joke’ from his upcoming ‘Find El Dorado’ album.

‘I Started A Joke’ was the hit song for the fifth Bee Gees album ‘Idea’. The song featured lead vocal by Robin Gibb. It was the last Bee Gees single to feature Vince Melouney on guitar. Melouney was a founding member of Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs. Post-Bee Gees Vince produced Ashton, Gardner & Dyke and was a member of the shortlived Fanny Adams, with Doug Parkinson as lead singer.

Paul Weller’s ‘Finding El Dorado’ will be released on 18 July 2025.
