Class act 3: Substitute
Regular readers will know that I don't post in August. However this year I'm putting up a series of "songs from the sixties" that pick up the theme of social class. They are the sort of music I used to listen to as a teenager.
If you were a working class teenager in 1960s Hackney The Who simply summed it all up with their declaration "I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth".

Thanks for this fun blast from the past!
I have to say that I can't quite see you as a Mod. Were you? By the time I was in my late teens, 'pansy-wagons' (scooters) were passe, 'grebos' (greaseboys) rode bikes and hair was getting longer...
Ian, you are correct. You could not imagine me as a mod. No I was a rocker sans motorcycle.
