Overview

Mod may have been born in the ballrooms and nightclubs around London but it soon rampaged throughout the country. Youngsters in the 60s soon found a passion for sharp clothes, music and dancing, but for some it was pills, thrills and violence.

In Mods: The New Religion the original Mod generation tell it exactly how it was, in their very own words. This book includes first hand accounts of the times from the people who were actually on the scene. Top faces, scooterboys, DJs, promoters and musicians build up a vivid, exciting snapshot of what it was really like to be with the in-crowd.

Packed with rare pictures, ephemera, art and graphics of the era, Mods: The New Religion includes interviews with Eddie Floyd, Martha Reeves, Ian McLagan, Chris Farlowe and many more.
