Well, you can tell I have broken my alcohol abstinence tonight as I have reverted to type. Playing this excellent compilation as I cook. This makes me feel young again. #CDs #ModRevival #MillionsLikeUs

I was listening to Cool for Cats by Squeeze and not really digging like half of it despite really liking some of their later albums and I had the thought "I'd probably be happier listening to The Jam" so that's how I ended up turning on In The City and having a better time.

Review: The Molotovs - Wasted On Youth

Brother and sister Mathew (vocals/guitar) and Issey Cartlidge (bass/vocals) are channelling the bands of the 70s/80s and throwing in some classic Britpop, whilst keeping the sound relevant and modern for a new audience.

Continuing to add archive posts to the substack. This is a great, must have classic mod revival album. The 2020 reissue is excellent too. #vinyl #AwayFromTheNumbers #review #ModRevival

If you are into #modrevival, then this is a good read.

Finally got hold of this month’s Record Collector, and it’s right up my flag pole! #RecordCollector #vinyl #ModRevival #xp

I fibbed. One more. The debut from Sharp Class and, in my opinion, their best so far. Listening to this I feel 17 again. Hard to explain how good this is, but anybody my age who was in to the scene back then will LOVE this #vinyl #ModRevival #xp

Now on to the brilliant Sharp Class before we eat. I wrote about this band on my blog recently, a modern day mod revival band that are absolutely smashing it out of the park. #vinyl #ModRevival #xp #SharpClass

LA Mod Pioneers The Question Release Landmark 1982 EP “Shall Be Love”

Seminal LA mod trio The Question has officially released their landmark 1982 EP, “Shall Be Love,” to all streaming platforms via Oglio Records. Widely regarded as the first and most significant mod band to emerge from LA, the trio—led by Tony Rugolo’s jazz-influenced, sharp songwriting—built a reputation on explosive live shows. The release kicks off an archival series featuring newly remixed, remastered, and previously unheard material, honoring the band whose sound transcended the mod scene and built a devoted following beyond the underground.

Last one for now. Cleaning my mod revival collection (in case you didn’t realise) and this is one of my all time favourites. Mick Talbot’s first band. Just fantastic tunes for the era. We loved it. #MertonParkas #vinyl #ModRevival #xp

The Lambrettas - Beat Boys In The Jet Age

The Lambrettas were actually discovered, if that’s the right word, by the relatively new Rocket Record Company. Elton John’s label formed in 1973. The story is that they sent flyers around and leaflet dropped asking bands to call the studio number, 499 2139, and put an advertisement in Melody Maker hoping to attract new talent...

🇬🇧 The Manish Boys/Davy Jones & The Lower 3rd – 1982 (recordings from 1965) - 10"

Raw and brimming with mod energy, this early glimpse of David Bowie (as Davy Jones) captures the sound of mid-60s British R&B and beat music in full swing. Gritty vocals, sharp suits, and swinging London vibes. Bowie’s roots on full display.
