The eighties white socks give it away.

interesting thought, even in the eighties i thought "mods" wore parkas, the odd few in mac's. but thats the first time i've seen so many in macs such as those.

was this a London style, or national, as i don't remember see many dressed like this in Derby in the eighties. must of passed me by that one.

The 80's - really?

Re the date of the photo - in the background it says that it costs 50p for the Peep Show!!

So, post decimal.....

Paul Hallam:" In 1981 I went on an a ski trip and took an old Olympus Trip with me. I thought I took some pretty good pictures with it, so the next year, when I was 17, at the height of the mod scene, I started taking pictures again. There's a few from 82, but the bulk are 84. There's no pictures from 83 because I bought a proper camera and had no idea how to use it"

I'm fairly sure I recognise some of the people in this photo?

Rob Messer,Paul Hallam and Dave Edwards I think.This was post 79 and the mod revival when the mainstram press ignored it and the mods that were left  were getting into the early black sixties music and dressing in the tailored 64 style.....apart from the white socks.

It's a bit different to the tracklistings of our Modernism Modern Soul CD's
