Re: Dare I ask? Does anyone like Motown?

[QUOTE=kestrelx;1012831]So where you a mod as well? I'm sure a guy called Mark Burroughs was part of that scene or maybe he was lying - remember his name? What was the look? Vest and parallels when dancing and a leather coat when out in the street?

Can`t say I know the name Kes but a face????

The look then was always changing for instance early 60`s ,Teddy Boys,Beatniks,Beatlemania.I wore Edwardian style jackets double breasted
and buttoning high to the collar.
Kipper ties,floral shirts,hipsters and flares into the 70`s
Platform shoes and Cossack hairspray!!
I personally never owned a pair of Levi`s,but when I wore jeans it was teamed up with cheesecoth shirts,a sort of nod to the cool hippy guys who were about.
Smart suits at weekend, always with a double vent in the jacket,big collar on my shirt,always a tie.
Never managed to own a leather coat but it was a good look.

And I never ever went to Wigan Casino...
