Modcast #602: Mods Talkin'

What happens when two old mods finally sit down and compare style notes? They discover their paths directly crossed nearly 40 years earlier for one thing. And they explore new sounds, old bands, and the everlasting strength of the mod lifestyle. I am joined by one of the best northern soul, mod DJs on the scene today, Mod Marty. He's the host of his own long running podcast On Target, and part of The Internationalists Club podcast along with T-Spurs and Lord Ward.
