Mod has its roots in in London with a group of young men in the late
Fifties who were known as modernists because they listened to modern
jazz. A Pocket Guide to Mod covers fashion including the use of the
Union Flag and RAF roundel; music including bands such as The Who, Small
Faces and Yardbirds who were associated with the music and locations
such as The Eel Pie Island Hotel at Twickenham near London;
amphetamines, the mod drug of choice that fuelled marathon all-night
dancing; and scooters including Vespas and Lambrettas often highly
customised.
