Oh, to clarify about your mates not understanding; I think a lot of american Mods went this way after say 1983. Logical progression. Trad is cool, but we had a scene too that moved on from "Heat Wave"

Hi. I'm 42 and remember the mod revival of 79 with the release of Quadrophenia,i gave that a miss and went straight into the scooteboy scene in about 83 in the UK where every genre of music is excepted. I just had to put this up,nothing to do with the scooter scene but i love it.

Goddamn yeah! I'm American, 48. I used to cover this in my band. Mod from way back. Thanks for the recorded version.

Damn; miss those days. Celebrated summer, innit?

Cette chanson est pour moi la plus belle que je n'ai jamais écoutée ! Data control est aussi sympa !

Hüsker dü est le plus grand groupe de tous les temps.

excellent choice of song...not heard this in years and its fantastic!!!!!

[Lamvesp]

Cheers mate. This recorded version wasn't on Youtube when i made the vid so i had to rectify that. A truly great song from a truly great band. My mates in the photos can't work out why a chose this for our Scooter Show weekend because they're mostly Mods,Skins and Scooterist that listen to SKA,Northern Soul and 60s music,,,,,nothing like a change i say.

[chonnom03]

Yeah; I was into the Jam, etc. And there is still what I call a "shaggy moddish" scene in the Pacific Northwest, where I hail from.

I like scooters too; I live in Seoul now, teaching, and you can buy great restored vintage Vespas with original colors for about the same as in the US!

Thanks for the reply and the song. Oh, yeah;

I used to live in Manchester; City supporter!

Cheers

Jim
