His 2005 album As Is Now featured the singles "From The Floorboards Up", "Come On Let's Go" and "Here's The Good News". The album was particularly well received critically and in February 2006 it was announced that Weller would be the latest recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award at the BRIT Awards. Despite a tendency to shun such occasions, Weller accepted the award in person, and performed four songs at the ceremony, including The Jam classic "Town Called Malice".In June 2006, a double live album titled Catch-Flame!, with songs from both his solo work and his career with The Jam and The Style Council, was released. In late 2006, the album Hit Parade was released, which collected all the singles released by the Jam, Style Council and Weller during his solo career. Two versions of this album were released: a single disc with a selection from each stage of his career, and a four-disc limited edition, which included every single released and came with a 64-page booklet.
The double album 22 Dreams was released on 2 June 2008 with "Echoes Round The Sun" as the lead single. Before recording this album, Weller had decided to part company with his existing band, resulting in the replacement of everyone except Steve Cradock. As well as Cradock, the new band consisted of Andy Lewis on bass, Andy Crofts of The Moons/The On Offs on keys and Steve Pilgrim of The Stands on drums. In November 2008 the box set Weller at the BBC was released in various formats, most notably as a 4-CD set and as a download which included multiple bonus tracks. A DVD, Weller at the BBC, was also released. The DVD contained more than 30 tracks, none of which were included in the various audio formats.
