Known for their one 45 on King Records (She's Got The Time), that has been a dance floor filler in Mod Clubs for over 25 years. This band's identity has been mystifying record collectors since it first appeared on Electric Sugar Cube Flashbacks Series.On the night three... of the five original members will perfrom both sides of the above mentioned single, and both sides of the unreleased 1965 EMI acetate, ( recorded when they were just 13 years old ) plus a selection of songs from an original…See More

The Chitlin Circut Event Type: Monthly Mod Club

Next month or this month (depending on when you are reading this) we will see the return of Phil Spicer aka Joe 90. But on the night he will walk through those famous doors at The Chitlin Circuit and transform himself in to Joe 45,as he steps behind the decks for the second time (and its exactly a year to the day). Phil has been collecting for over thirty years, and knows a good tune or two. So expect the very best in Mod Club Sounds. Alongside our guest we have the usual suspects Louie, Pete…See More

Profile Information

About Me:
Although I stop using the term Mod in the late 80's early 90's. It was other people that would call me a Mod. Funny enough, the chap I used to knock about with ( Hello Mr Harris ) was also like minded, not surprising then we became big pals and still are

As the years gone by, the old family genetic gene finally got to grips with my head, but I always look on the bright side, and realise I save a fortune in trips to the barbers

Which means more money for records, give me some early american R and B - or some mid 60s Uk / European beat, throw in some 60s Garage from the states and I am as happy as man can be.
Top 5 tunes at the moment:
ALL TIME TOP FIVE ARE
Action = Everthing !!!!!!
Dirty Wurds = Why
High Numbers = Zoot Suit
Him And The Others = I Mean It
Him And The Others = She's Got Eyes That Tell Lies
Vespa, Lambretta or other?
Loakes Royal Brogues
