Curated by the cordoroyed experts at Acid Jazz, The Best Of Rare Mod is a treaure trove trawl through '60s mod, R’n’B, beat-pop and soul. Mostly full of lost classics, it features tracks from legendary scenesters Fleur De Lys and everywhere man Graham Dee as well as a turn from a young David Bowie with The Riot Squad.
The ‘Rare Mod’ series has been one of the most enduring Acid Jazz- curated comps of recent years. This included the CD Volumes 1-3 and a 3CD Boxset, uncovering a host of lost classics that capture sound of the original Mod scene: Hard R’n’B, Beat & Soul, and archetypal Pop from the 1960s.
Set for release on 17 May, for the first time the 'Best Of…' is available on vinyl, with choice selections from across the series, presented in a hip, evocative sleeve, with printed inner, and on orange transparent vinyl.
With the first side leaning towards Freakbeat and the second towards Soul, the tracklist contains tracks from the legendary Fleur De Lys, as well as a track from their brief billing as ‘Shyster’. Elsewhere, there are several productions from unsung hero and prolific session man Graham Dee, and even a turn from young David Bowie performing with The Riot Squad!
An absolute must-have collection of the less-heard tracks from one of the most iconic periods of British music.
