Color LP version (splatter vinyl)!
Following the success of the Who's Quadrophenia and The Jam's stunning debut LP, Britain was hit by a full-on mod revival, the scene mushrooming in the late 1970s and early '80s. To showcase the phenomenon, Bridgehouse Records staged a gala concert in Canning Town in May 1979, featuring Secret Affair, the Mods, Squire, Beggar, Small Hours, and other acts, many of whom hailed from the Big Smoke's suburban edges. This edition comes complete with two bonus tracks from the revered Merton Parkas, a short-lived group that featured future Dexy's Midnight Runners and Style Council main man, Mick Talbot. A must for all mod die-hards!
