You need to look at the reason a lot of this type of music got into the UK . The MOD movement was the first to latch onto it and it was the same with SKA and the original Blues and R&B . They were getting them of American GI's salors etc or as in the case of SKA migrants . MOD's played a great part in getting music into this country to start with befor the record companys did .

Beg to differ, the movement started way back in the 50's with small clubs getting hold of music that nobody else had over here.

@s2trash rubbish most of this music was around long before the Mods 'soul' music was here in the early 60's we were playing soul around the south coast in 63'64 and the main supporter of Soul music was Dusty Springfield who saved the 1964 Tamla tour by featuring it on an 1 hour special RSG which she hosted at the time.

That bass is amazing. What happened to the bass players in music today?
