Definitive Mod Collection:
This is a suburb collection capturing the Mod craze from 1979 - 1983. Many good groups are on here. For example, Small World has been labeled one of the best Mod groups of the era. This is great for anyone who has had their fill of The Jam. ;-)
A Nice Collection of Mod Rock:
I spotted this two disc set at a local store and decided to take a chance on it. If you like The Jam, mod rock in general, the early Who or even punk, circa 1977, then this is for you. I found a few new favorites here, like the Amber Squad track. Honestly, there are many strong tracks. Recommended... Thought I'd add to my review to say that this collection is now available as part of a 3 CD set called "Mod Box". You get these two discs plus one more at a greatly reduced price! (...)
A Great Overview/Intro To Mod Rock:
This album was my first introduction to Mod rock that wasn't The Jam, and it really surprised me. Sure, there are some flat out Jam rip offs here, but they pull it off well. The album as a whole is very good. There are as many well established bands here as there are ones who were only around for one novelty single. There's many stand out tracks here including those by Small World, The Purple Hearts, The Name, Amber Squad, The Aces,The Circles, and Squire. A recomedation for anyone wishing to check out the genre.
