The song was about a musician moonlighting

I was a "Mod" in Melbourne, Australia, during the early 1980s mod revival (it was actually a really fun, vibrant scene). 'I'll Keep On Holding On' was a guaranteed dancefloor filler EVERY. SINGLE.TIME. My first Action compilation was one called 'The Ultimate Action' with sleeve notes by Paul Weller. I wore the grooves off that thing and could never understand why all their singles weren't big hits (much like the Creation). Reg King's voice was so strong, natural and distinctive. Phil Collins was a superfan of the band back in the day and I can totally understand why. Thanks for this video, I learnt so much that I never knew before. Cheers mate!

Wow The Who & Small Faces dominate my collection when it comes to 'mod' youth music but this was a real revelation ... why didn't the 60s rock gods shine their light on this band ... thanks Matt!!

The Action, The Creation ,Fleaur de lys, The Eyes, St Louis Union ,The Attack soooo many great 60s mod bands

Matt, I bought the original compilation, "The Ultimate Action", back in the early 80's when it was available as an import, on Edsel/Demon records. It had a mostly black cover design, with just a tiny picture of the band in a circle, but no other group shot elsewhere. Paul Weller wrote the sleeve notes on the back ("...A piece of the Action! YES PLEASE!), dated November 1980. It had 14 tracks. Later on, I bought a CD compilation called "Action Packed" which added 3 extra songs to the original 14 from the Ultimate Action LP.

I was 10-11 years old and listening to AM radio constantly, but they're the first you've pulled out of the way back machine that I don't remember. I would've appreciated their musicianship...thanks, and keep 'em coming, Matt.

Thanks for this video, there were so many great groups in the UK in the 60s, the Fleur deLys, Birds, Pirates, and of course the Action.

Edsel/Demon label did a really good vinyl comp in the 1980's which is how I discovered this great underrated band.

Thanks John. They have some wonderful stuff!

Excellent overview. Like many others, my introduction was The Ultimate Action (with Paul Weller sleeve notes) and the accompanying single I’ll Keep on Holding On. With bands writing their own material this held back the Action as they were mainly a covers band, albeit very good with their own sound.

Rolled Gold is mandatory listening!

I love the Action, especially Rolled Gold, every song a gem. Thanks for this!💋

I'm an American, but I find these lesser known UK bands (to Americans) far more interesting and their music much more exotic than the Stones, The Beatles, The Who, The Kinks, etc who have become over-exposed and over-explained here in the US. I'm really getting music like The Action, The Nice, The Small Faces, The Move, the Creation, Screaming Lord Sutch, and Graham Bond

After I watched this, I went to Amazon and downloaded several albums. Once I have a chance to listen, I’ll pop back on and comment further 😁

Thanks Matt! The Rolled Gold stuff sounds a bit like a mishmash of The Guess Who and The Small Faces with a bit of Badfinger in there. Surprised they never made it bigger.

Thanks for covering the Action Matt, they were the greatest mod band ever imo, especially because of Reg King's voice which was ultra soulful but he was never a screamer. Rolled Gold is the best 'lost' LP ever, an incredible original mix of powerpop, psych, freakbeat, rock and soul - they flowered into a band of great vision and creativity. I never tire of it, so glad it finally came out. BTW they did some reunion gigs in the late 90's and even a VHS doco In the Lap of the Mods that now is almost impossible to get - does feature gushing super fan Phil Collins, there was also a coffee table level book. On KZread there is a great snippet of them doing a few songs as well as hanging out with their manager, no full version of their take of The Ronettes 'Do I Love You' which is a real bummer as it was one of the best covers, not avialable anywhere I don't think in full. kzread.info/dash/bejne/eGmgt7OrhbCTeM4.html

Thank you, Mark - this was a fun one to do!

Thanks for giving some attention to these guys, much deserved. When I think of The Action I can't help but also think what a tragic story it was in that they should have had been signed, had some degree of success (at least in the UK) and released at least 2 LP's by '68. With George Martin backing them (to a degree) it's hard to understand what went wrong, why labels were 'passing' on them. They were obviously more talented then your average 'Mod' band. In addition they successfully changed with the times musically, going from R&B/Northern Soul to all out psych to then rural 'hippie', not easy to do. Also worth mentioning that they did put out one final LP under the name The Habibiyya - "If Man But Knew" in 1972 minus Martin Stone. These recordings are more Eastern influenced as the band was well into their Sufi journey. In addition to the Action box set there is also a great Mighty Baby box set "At A Point Between Fate and Destiny: The Complete Recordings" which was released in 2019. I would highly recommend to anyone interested in them.

Thanks for this superb history and analysis of the band that I would come to know and love as Mighty Baby during their heyday when they were constantly on the festival circuit with Hawkwind, Twink, Pink Faries, The Deviants et. al. I particularly like the attention you pay to the changing sound of the The Action as different drugs became fashionable. Such a valuable critique is to be saluted because it provides a very welome and reasonable taxonomy with which to categorize not only the music of The Action but all musical trends across the board. Richard Meltzer used this approach to some extent in his crticism, but the last music journalist I can remember who applied this method in the widest sense possible has to be Joe Carducci in the first edition of his Rock and the Pop Narcotic. Thanks again!

There are hundreds of regional songs that didn’t make national hit status due to circumstances such as lack of promotion, payola, release timing, bad luck, management issues, small labels, etc. etc. You ability to hear a hit after it is a hit is called 20/20 hindsight. The “hit” song artists you mentioned are so ingratiated into your thinking that apparently it’s difficult for you to hear or think about potential contenders.

'Rolled Gold' was the Action's peak, musically, IMHO. It was a shame that it was never recorded properly back in the day. However, at least the music industry eventually had the good sense to release the demos, which are terrific -- some of the best pop songs of the 60s, I think. "I've Got Something to Say" should have been a big hit.

Matt, this band (like so many) were given their chance to step up to the plate, but struck out every time from a commercial angle. But all was not lost, having a few years of club success, with I'm sure much attention from the ladies (haha), makes for some good memories. A nice respite from having to get a real job. Cheers!

I immediately recognized Bam King from his later stint with Ace (and “How Long”). Their debut album, _Five-A-Side,_ is uniformly excellent and hints at how awesome they must have been on the early-70s UK pub-rock circuit. (Paul Carrack, however, was later quoted as saying that the other members of Ace were the “laziest” people he’d ever known.) It should be noted, also, that “I’ll Keep Holding On” and “Shadows and Reflections” both appear in Rhino’s _Nuggets II_ compilation, which is a sort of “rest of the world” counterpart to the original _Nuggets_ collection. (I snagged _Nuggets II_ in the file-sharing days, but of course it didn’t come with the liner-notes booklet, so I still have no idea what was said about any of the groups.)

I think America didn't want "Mod" covers of Motown and Soul when we had the Original although the Mod versions Were different. The Action did some of the Best Motown covers. I think The Who made it in the USA because they had a Bit of a "Novelty" element going on which Townsend did Intentionally. The Small Faces only had one American Hit "Itchycoo Park" and that was during their Psychedelic period, none of their Mod stuff was popular in the USA.
