An interesting and thought-provoking read. I enjoyed every page of this book, a brilliant throwback to the mod era. Would recommend to friends and family as I think they would like to read this too.

enjoyed this book from the authors early days to modern day and his musical influences and the characters he met and knew from the original mods

As soon as I started reading I realised there's lots here I can personally relate to. In 1979, the pivotel year for the mod revival, I lived in Ilford and worked for a film production company in Soho.
What a fabulous memoir this is. So full of detail: gigs, venues, performers, managers, record labels and every facet of teen culture in the early 1980s. What a different world we lived in back then! Teenagers today spend most of their time at home playing with their controllers or tapping away on their mobile phones. This book points out all that they missed.
Eddie takes one through his career path with a real who's who in the indie music scene in the '80s. And he recalls a great many scooter trips: Bournemouth, the Isle of Wight, and even Belfast during the Troubles.
This book is a must read for everyone who was ever young and is still young at heart.

As a second generation Mod, I was sure this book was right up my street. And I was right! Thanks so much Eddie for reminding me of those great days of 1979 and onward. Hearing The Jam for the first time and knowing that's what it was abou,t then exploring the original scene proved to be a springboard for the rest of my life. Would heartily recommend. KTF.
