Essential MOD movers and shakers from the original club scene - This is the sound of the Mod generation . The MOD scene evolved on the cusp of the sixties as Britain was emerging from the postwar blues. Likeminded teenagers shrugged off the economic depression and carved a place for themselves that was filled with good-times, danceable rhythms, sharp suits and an air of elitism. And those rhythms - immortalised here - were a heady, dazzling, mix of American R&B, jump blues, jazzy lounge vibes and the feel-good, floor-shaking, sound of ska! Mod has moved on since it's early days, but the fact it has survived at all suggests that at it's heart was something special, something akin to a philosophy that could and would last throughout decades and into the future. It has endured and thrived with it's cool, self-regard, unscathed and these choice cuts - sounding every bit as urgent today - are testament to it's longevity.
