The Mod Scene

The Mod Scene

During the original UK 'mod' movement of the mid '60s, no label released more slices of classic 'mod' than Decca Records. This compilation features 25 rare and influential recordings straight from the Decca vaults and features many vital tracks that helped shape the scene. Mixing rock, blues and soul with electrifying energy, the 'mods' were sharply dressed and ready to take their sounds to the streets and were warmly embraced by the music-obsessed 'mod' fans. Although many of these artists are long forgotten, their powerful sounds have survived for four decades. Includes tracks from Tom Jones, Paul & Barry Ryan, The Poets, Amen Corner, Small Faces, Chris Farlow, Graham "10cc" Gouldman, Zoot Money's Big Roll Band, Graham Bond Orchestra and many more. Universal. 2003.
