60s the best era for music and clothes and the best of all the mods. I am still one at the age of 70 in four days and I love it long live mods. 🤩😊😎🤗

[@lessmith7906]

Once a MOD always a MOD. What great times.

[@arricammarques1955]

MOD an eternal state of mind & life.

I went from being a being surfing dude skateboarder and went to London for the Summer after high school and that's how I learned how to dress. It was watching The Who, Mick Jagger. The Kinks. I became so popular with girls and others after coming home looking all mod. It was so weird as I had no music abilities but people wanted me at parties thinking I was in a band. And my mom would throw out my clothes or burn them in the fireplace every week, then years later was wearing similar clothes with her friends.

Best fashion ever. I use some of those clothes and I even have a union jack bed sheet

[@Maclaren415]

I came out of black and white television and that era. This was something totally new and changed the world forever, even today...they try to repeat this period. You had to have lived it.

My most favourite pair of trousers were a pair of tartan ones Rod Stewart style I looked smart but not to my girlfriends father who was a RSM in the army, I must of have been a shock to him. here I was a skinny 17 year old long hair going out with his daughter.. I still buy Union Jack clothing when I go back to the UK have the socks undies and Tee shirt I love it

The 2 guys identified as The Troggs are in fact The Ryan Twins.

Youi can learn so much on KZbin with a little curiosity.

It wasn't the Troggs! It was Paul and Barry Ryan!

[@darneyoung537]

The Sharpies in the 60s were the best years

[@paulselkirk2345]

[@hellooutthere8956]

Tht sounds like country music. But then country music came from Appalachia mtns. The home base of scotch Irish.

[@Vampirebear13]

My dear scotch is a drink, we're Scots/Irish :-) Find the clip of Sean Connery saying it :-)

[@annafraley5388]

I wanted to watch this but Couldn’t because of the Background Noise… 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️🫣

[@gauradas108]

Skiffle sounds like Country and Western

[@agillan2930]

That's what he says.

[@anthonykerr311]

Mod for it 😂

[@julieshrive3198]

Who are you !

[@margaretmoore7034]

An old woman who lives in a bungalow behind my house looks like Roger Daltrey . . her name is Pat.

[@dazthemod69]

Best thing I've ever read lmao.

[@chadstrohmayer541]

Would be great if the maker of this “film” lost the music under track while people they interviewed spoke. Music, especially with annoying singing at equal level of the subject speaking is super difficult for viewers to hear.

👍🇬🇧🎼 THE WHO

[@a.briton1027]

Gash. !!!

[@dannyhood7433]

The mockers.

[@tomcarl8021]

Lonnie Donegan should have been sued into oblivion. He was a song thief of the worst kind.
