Mod is entering it’s 60th birthday
and is once again growing as a cultural force – a new generation has discovered
this most quintessential of British cultures.....
.. ..
Acid Jazz are celebrating with the next
installment of their highly successful RARE MOD compilation series.....
.. ..
The east ....London.... indie has combed the attics and
wardrobes of hundreds of original musicians and collected an amazingly broad
cross-section of previously unreleased material. Acetates, demos and bona-fide
unreleased songs combine on a hard hitting and commercially successful release.....
.. ..
Volume one was released earlier this
year to much acclaim and was described as a genuine rival to both Nuggets and
Pebbles. Volume two is a step up in class and rarity.....
.. ..
From obscure British soul (The Donnie
Elbert Band and Mac Kissoon) though R n B (C Jam Blues, Parker’s Mood and The
Gass Company), early psyche (The Nocturnes, The Amboy Dukes, The Summer Set) to
out-and-out mod classics (The Fleur de Lys and The Richard Kent Style) – all
the genres and styles are represented and many of the musicians involved went
on to massive success in later years.....
.. ..
With mod enjoying its highest profile in a generation,
from Weller and Oasis to The Last Shadow Puppets and Twisted Wheel, this album
showcases a whole host of brilliant, undiscovered anthems for old hands and new
converts alike.
.. ..
Compiled by and with sleeve notes from
Paul “Smiler” Anderson and Damian Jones. ....
