I've added some links to other music sites rather than rewriting history.I will add a record collectables list with some price guides for the more well known albums and singles, at a later date.

Try here for an article of the early Mod Revival music and groups.

Secret Affair - Article by Gary Bushell

The New Narcissism begins with mod. Four welldressed boys walk along the prom, preen themselves for the "renes" - one rung above boilers - and pose for pictures. The session draws the girls' eyes to the boys, and they loving it.

Ian Page, SECRET AFFAIR's singer, is leading his three accomplices through the beach-hut paradise of Torquay's seafront, where the band have their pictures taken. Page wears his East End peacockney bravado in his smile.
"OY RENE! ARM!" he orders, offering his elbow to non-plussed potential takers. His sucess rate would not win him favourable odds, though he's not really trying too hard. The rule of this game differ, however, insofar as the renes eye the boys and the boys eye themselves in any readily available reflecive surface. Mod boys keep swinging, regardless.
