The Best Of Rare Mod (Colour Vinyl LP)
£23.00
*Pre-Order/ Releases 17 May*
The ‘Rare Mod’ series has been one of the most enduring Acid Jazz- curated comps of recent years. This included the CD Volumes 1-3 and a 3CD Boxset, uncovering a host of lost classics that capture sound of the original Mod scene: Hard R’n’B, Beat & Soul, and archetypal Pop from the 1960s.
For the first time, the Best Of… is available on vinyl, with choice selections from across the series, presented in a hip, evocative sleeve, with printed inner, and on orange transparent vinyl.
The tracklist contains a couple from the legendary Fleur De Lys, as well as a track from their brief billing as ‘Shyster’. Elsewhere, there are several productions from unsung hero and prolific session man Graham Dee, and even a turn from young David Bowie performing with The Riot Squad!
An absolute must-have collection of the less-heard tracks from one of the most iconic periods of British music.
