the jetset

Bio:

The Jetset were one of the oddest footnotes in British pop music history. Loosely associated with the mod-revival of the late-70s, they took the revival one step further. Not only did they recreate the sounds of '60s pop but they also attempted to mirror the careers and myths of their idols with a near-Rutles-esque media blitz which included a proposed television series, Christmas greeting flexi-singles, comic strips, trading cards, and an array of fake Jetset-related products. Though they never really made it out of the underground and have been forgotten by all but mod/pop fetishists, The Jetset left behind an impressive body of work. CHRIS WOODSTRA, AMG
