Clucking Bell...it's another O3L! This week, we're getting all amphetamined** up and discussing our favourite MOD songs of the O3L era. Whether you're a mod or rocker, mocker or moth, put on your parka, pour yourself a pimple & blotch, and join us.

 

We are beyond excited to welcome our Third Lad this week, none other than CHRIS POPE from The Chords UK! As one of the best and most prominent bands to rise up during the 1979 Mod Revival, Chris penned The Chords' five star classic album, 1980's So Far Away, and five UK chart hits: "Now It's Gone", "Maybe Tomorrow", "Something's Missing", "The British Way Of Life" and "In My Street". A comprehensive box set, Rechordings 1978-81, was issued in 2019.

 

More recently, Pope has released three albums with The Chords UK, including the brand new LP Big City Dreams. We talk about the new record and the band's upcoming tour of the US west coast.

 

**No amphetamines were actually involved in the making of this episode.
