Eagerly awaited sequel to 2020’s successful ‘Halcyon Days’, that was itself inspired by the RPM Records bespoke compilations ‘Looking Back’, ‘Keep Lookin’ and ‘Night Comes Down’.
Celebrating Mod-friendly 1960’s beat music with disc one focussing on club-based sounds, disc two on Mod legends and disc three’s groovier, more heavy and psychedelic acts.

Disc Two includes Mod legends The Who and Small Faces and fuzz- drenched stompers from The Pretty Things, The Artwoods and The Downliners Sect, while on disc three the music gets groovier, more psychedelic and then heavier with acts including Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger And The Trinity, The Easybeats (with Steve Marriott on backing vocals) and Steve Ellis.
