In going over the albums for the next battle I had a few small conundrums I'd like to bring up: First of all  I'm wondering if it would be better to put in the Jam album Setting Sons in place of Sound Affects. Does anybody have a preference between the two?
Secondly, I have not seen the NZ band The La De Da's described as a Mod band anywhere that I've found, which leads me to question if their album is appropriate for this list. If somebody would like to suggest a replacement, now's your chance. Either way I'm hoping to get us going as early as I can tomorrow, just wanted to hear some other opinions regarding the aforementioned things. The list of albums is below for your reference.

Current Mod list
1. The Who - The Who Sell Out
2. The Kinks - Face to Face

Since nobody had a response I decided to just cut through and make the call on everyone's behalf. I left in Sound Affects but swapped out The La De Da's for the album A Taste of Pink! by The Prisoners. So without further ado let's get this party started once more!
