Rockers & Mods 004: THE ACTION


THE ACTION c 1967





LAND OF 1000 DANCES
THE ACTION
Debut single, 1965



The Action are the great 'What if?' band of the Mod era –– an act which could have been huge had fate been a little kinder to it and music's most formidable enemy, ego, had not reared its ugly head to sabotage what, on paper at least, had seemed to be an exceptionally promising career.  Unrecognized geniuses or not, The Action were an inspired rhythm and blues band as their soulful cover of Chris Kenner's 1963 hit Land of 1000 Dances should certainly confirm.
