Episode 22: Mr. Suave's Mod Mod World Episode #22: More Mod Beats

Welcome to episode #22 featuring an exceptional track list. I've got a new feature I'm trying out, tracing the roots of current mod bands and bands obviously heavily influenced by mod music. So for this episode I've got The Who, The Jam & Green Day. [Originally aired August 2007 on Mistersuave.com] To set the scene here's a passage from Mr. Suave's First Epistle to the Mods.Chapter 1 Verse 1: In the beginning was The Who and the mods knew it was good. It was loud and brash and full of danceable rhythm. Verse 2: The Who begat the Jam and the punks and mods knew it was good. It was fast and it was soulful. Verse 3: The Jam begat Green Day. And the punks and the mods and the masses finally all opened their ears and knew it was good. It was loud, and brash, and fast. And ultimately they showered it with silver and gold.
