Three CD box containing a bespoke mod-friendly mix of 1960s musical styles commencing with tough British R&B from The Pretty Things and The Graham Bond Organization, taking in key tracks by mod heroes Small Faces, The Creation and The Action, freakbeat from The Syn, soul from Mike Wade and Jon And Jeannie and ending with a jazzy Hammond workout by The Spencer Davis Group. A long awaited follow up to previous mod inspired Strawberry label compilations 'Halcyon Days' (2020) and 'I Love To See You Strut' (2022) plus the RPM collections 'Looking Back' (2011), 'Keep Looking' (2014) and 'Night Comes Down' (2017). Familiar names such as Laurel Aitken and The Moody Blues are joined by cult favourites including The Artwoods (featuring future Deep Purple organist Jon Lord) and John's Children. Eight tracks are taken from producer Joe Meek's legendary Tea Chest Tapes including a rarity from The Sorrows led by Don Fardon and previously unreleased recordings by mod groups The Riot Squad and The Birds Of Prey, R&B band The Classics plus two groups whose identity is unknown. Other tracks issued for the first time here include cuts by The Fingers, Dana Gillespie and the Jimmy Henderson Set alongside first time on (official) CD rarities from The Kirkbys, The Athenians, My Generation, Kevin 'King' Lear Mike Wade, Magic Lanterns and Karl Stuart & The Profiles.
