3 out of 5 stars Could do better.......2004-09-10

Classic Secret Affairs tracks make this album just about ok...Merton Parkas song are probably the best they did with Mick Talbot being a class act no matter who he plays with. Beggars never really made it big and these tracks are more to fill up an album to capitalize on the mini mod revival we've gone thru in the last couple of years....While a little more expensive, I'd probably stick with buying the Secret Affair/Time for Action and treat yourself to the Complete Collection for the Parkas....if you are feeling really nostalgic, pick up the Lambrettas.....steer clear of this one unless you only have 15 bucks to spend....

    If anything cpatures the mod revival of the late 1970s early 1980s this is it. Not the best sound recording and not the best artists but for sheer power and entusiasm this CD has it. A necessary item in any Mods collection.
