the influence of foreign music on mod culture
The phrase 'Mod' is not really a useful one musically, it is however a word that best describes the youth movement and subculture of the mid-60's, where young teenagers would wear designer suits and stylish dresses to escape the working class stereotype regarding fashion whilst listening to raw and raucous garage rock, with strong R&B/ northern soul influences.
Some common examples of Mod music include:
1) "The kids are alright" by The Who
2) "who'll be the next in line" by The Kinks
3) "All or nothing" by The small faces
4) "Biff Bang Pow " by The creation
5) "Something has hit me" by The Action
