This is the first vinyl compilation of GEROGIE FAME's Columbia recordings since 1979’s 'Beat Classics' and is designed to complement that seminal work. While that went for the hits and the singles, 'Mod Classics' goes for the dancefloor appeal of 24 tracks that mix jazz, rhythm and blues and soul. Georgie and his group, the Blue Flames, were the hippest outfit in mid-60s London. Georgie covered the hippest jazz cuts, the most obscure soul from Stax, Motown and Okeh and would also show his love of rhythm and blues with his take on numbers by Ray Charles and Sam Cooke. This compilation shows that there was more to Georgie Fame than the hits of "Yeh, Yeh!" and "Getaway" - this is the Georgie of the Flamingo All-Nighter, a man worshipped by the mods.
