"[Compiler Eddie Piller] doesn't sequence chronologically; his approach is more scattershot, with the emphasis on listening experience rather than presenting a history lesson. But 60s mod in all its rainbow colours is represented: a quick snapshot takes in the speed-blues and Brit R&B of Cyril Davies & His R&B All Stars and John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers; the gorgeous soul of Georgie Fame, Dusty Springfield, Madeline Bell and PP Arnold; the pounding beat of The Carnaby and The Zombies; ska from the Beazers aka Chris Farlowe and the Thunderbirds; freakbeat from The Poets, The Syndicats and The Sorrows and organ groove from The Quik and Wynder K Frog. With notes written by Paul 'Smiler' Anderson, author of Mods: The New Religion and Mod Art, providing vital context, it's the complete package and a real buzz".
