Here's another one, the scooter Mods were considered as the good guys as opposed to the Rockers who were also known as 'greasers' over here.

Speaking of mods and rockers, here's a song from The Who's concept album "Quadrophenia."

From wiki:

Quote:

The original release of Quadrophenia came with a set of recording notes for reviewers and journalists that explained the basic story and plot.

The narrative centres on a young working-class mod named Jimmy. He likes drugs, beach fights and romance, and becomes a fan of the Who after a concert in Brighton.

Doctor Jimmy

"Now, it's obvious that this is one of the best concept albums of all time, if not the best concept album ever made. If you haven't heard Quadrophenia before, I encourage you to check it out, but only when you have enough time to listen to all of it uninterrupted in one sitting."

Thank you, it's interesting. I remember Rockers and Mods fighting to death. Seems that addiction to motor biking still isn't enough for solidarity.
Dee Snyder is an exception with his charity events.

There's always the 'if only I did it like this' afterwards, to me I don't think it could have been bettered.
I try with the lyrics with him when it's playing in the car and I'm guessing he probably had the words in front of him when recording it.

I was telling someone else on here that I didn't know Petty had passed away, accidentally o/d on fentanyl when I read up on it, the same drug what claimed Prince's life and was just a few days short of 67 YO.
