We are the Mods!!!


One of the essentials being in the scene or lifestyle. We're bringing you the movie soundtrack of "Quadrophenia" starring Phil Daniels and directed by Franc Roddam. The movie is based on The Who's Rock opera and sixth album release. The movie is about Jimmy Cooper aka "Jimmy the Mod' during the 60's Mod World and the intense rivalry with another youth subculture " The Rockers". I think most of you have seen the movie many times because I do. I have a anniversary dvd of the movie sent by my cousin from California 4 or 5 years ago. It was remastered, everything was more clear and the bonus features are awesome especially the interview part of Sting of The Police talking about his Vespa GS that he used and him being the Ace Face in the movie. The movie also helped in reviving the Mod movement in '79 and regaining the interest in scootering in England in time with the 2Tone movement that was focused on ska.
