In the same week in 1979 I went to see The Jam at The Rainbow, Finsbury Park and The Scorpions at The Hammersmith ODEON. Love guitar music whatever shade.


Funnily enough,RangersRocker,I was lucky enough for my first two gigs I went too to be The Jam at The Rainbow in 1979 (I was a clueless,style free 13 year old and turned up in wellington boots!) and before that David Bowie - the mod turned Rock God - at Earls Court in 1978.Both foo king sensational!!







It's Friday! On the cusp of the weekend:

We had this lot down the rehearsal studios a couple of times - regaled us youngsters of stories how they used to cut themselves up onstage with broken bottles etc. Iggy came up with the perfect line..."I’ve never met a convincing musician that didn’t look kind of ill and kind of dirty."

Jeez. Having the opportunity is enough to impress. I doubt I've ever been within 250 Miles of that genius at any given time. They just don't make 'em like him anymore. Well... I'm sure they do but record companies will not allow a man to release such varied and brilliant records (some that didn't catch on till later) over the span of 40 years. Even some of the newer stuff is fantastic.

We won't mention Tin Machine...

well the first video it looks like my good mate tony class and the person behind the video andy hilson.

Whats all this bollocks with david bowie/ clash and Ska etc? They was not Mod. I have no issue with them as artists, but thery was not part of the scene( unless you were a skinhead or f##king tuneless in music), so why the youtube video clips?

So, anyone on hear remember the punch-ups in South london with Millwall in about the 1980's and The Viceroys SC back in 78 - 80 ?

Oh. one other thing, nice to se a clip of Jimmy on his scooter in Sawley Road, Wormholt Estate, i remember it well when they were making the film, especally the radio adds on capital for Mods with scooters to go to Brighton for the filming - happy days....... trouble was, i could not get a day off work

I think this thread morphed in to a musical appreciation thread rather than a Mod thread.

precisely - there's no fixed rule on how a thread must proceed and what you can post - this one has just meandered on its own accord

Would that be the same Tony Class who used to DJ at the Sunn Inn just off the Euston Rd early 80s. Had some great times.

I found out a couple of years ago that my uncle was the organist of a church in East Ham and ran the choir in which a youthful Steve Marriott sang. So the custom of soul singers being church singers is maintained even for non-obvious candidates.

Anyhow, said uncle has a group photo of the choir including Steve Marriott.

This was surprising for a number of reasons. Why had he not mentioned it before? I never new that Uncle D was an organist and choir master? I always thought Uncle D was an atheist (he is!?)

Anyway, Small Faces definitely East London Mods. Itchycoo Park = East Ham Rec
