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's classic "town called malice". in june 2006, another double live album titled "catch-flame!", featuring 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, the 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. weller was offered appointment as a commander of the order of british empire in the 2006 birthday honours, but rejected the offer.
