> As a potential buyer, I'm looking for a few good opinions on The
Chords, who emerged in England during The Jam's mod heyday.
I really dug their album "So Far Away" and I agree with Jim who said
they were the most consistent of the mod revival bands (aside from The
Jam, of course). They did have some decent singles, and are worth
checking out. I can't listen to the opening theme song for Jon
Stewart's "Daily Show" without being reminded of a Chords song, I
think it's "What Are We Gonna Do Now." Pretty much the same guitar
riff...
As for The Anderson Council, they just played a "mod night" at CBGB
last Friday, along with '80s acts Mod Fun and The Ravens. Anyone
happen to make the scene?
Be seeing you,
Bill
