SECRET AFFAIR

One of the bigger bands from late-70’s/early 80’s mod revival, they brought a driving power pop flair to the formula and charted several singles in their primary three year run. Their central players were guitarist David Cairns and keyboardist Ian Page, both of whom cut their teeth in earlier mod band New Hearts. These are their three classic albums (before they started the long hiatuses) and the anthology is chock-full of demos, alternate mixes, BBC sessions, and six early New Hearts tracks.

THE DIRECT HITS

Mod revival power pop with a fair dose of fuzzy guitars and popsike vocals. They grew out of power poppers The Exits and predominantly showcased the songwriting talents of frontman Colin Swan. They put out two albums and a string of 7” & 12” EPs; this fantastic career-spanning anthology pulls the brightest bits and most pervasive pieces from all corners of their catalog.

THE EXITS

The Direct Hit’s guitarist Geno Buckmaster as well as keyboardist/bassist/songwriter/vocalist Colin Swan both came from The Exits. Strong power pop with hues of classic garage psych – not as mod as The Direct Hits, but you can definitely hear them sniffing up that tree, sneaking in ska counter-beats or a soul jazz groover on occasion. They only had one official 45 in 1978, the remainder of these unreleased studio sessions were recorded in the two years before The Direct Hits formed.

THE MERTON PARKAS

London mod revivalists orchestrated by producer Mick Talbot (also of Dexys Midnight Runners, The Style Council, The Bureau, and more) with drummer Simon Smith (from Mood Six and The Times). Somewhat influenced by the New Wave sound, they hatched a radio-pop strain of retro mod that was poised evenly between clean pre-wave pop rock and riff-tastic ska/soul mod grooves. They only released one album before members went on to bigger and better things, immortalized now as part of the great Beggars Banquet classic roster.
