I always describe Sam Cooke‘s voice, as the voice of an angel. One of the most beautiful, soulful voices that I heard from my pre-teen years and one which still continues to this day ❤️

One of the first & perhaps one of the most popular vinyl albums for the old 80s Mods. I still have this nearly 40 yrs on. A great trip down memory lane ❤️ ... 20 Mod Classics Volume 2 ...

This image is from the front of my 1980's Mod scrapbook. I was just finding my feet and trying to learn about Mod subculture so started adding to it at 13. It continued for another six years ... Makes me smile looking at it now ❤️ Who else still has their scrapbooks from the 1980s? 😊

This makes me smile. Taken in January 1988. 37 yrs ago this month, throwing it down with snow at Scarborough before I went for a paddle in the sea (as you do 😂). Just before getting ready for the CCI Mod All-nighter at The Lemon Tree. Photo taken by Jenny Allen. Happy days from a distant past ❤️

This image, again from my #Mod scrapbook, was taken from Scootering magazine. I think it was the January 1986 edition (but may be wrong until I look). Personally I think this a classic image of back then & how I did & still perceive Mod & what 80's Mod subculture dress was like back then ❤️
