EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant streets of London in May 1966. The legendary pop group, The Troggs, is captured together outside the renowned "Take Sir" boutique on Wardour Street. Ronnie Bond, Peter Staples, Chris Britton, and Reg Presley stand confidently as they strike a pose for the camera. The significance of this moment lies in the promise made by shop owner Sid Brent (seen on the right). He pledged to gift them £1,000 worth of clothes if their single reached the top five charts. Little did they know that their record "Wild Thing" would skyrocket to number two! Their excitement and anticipation can be felt through their infectious smiles and animated expressions. As we examine this snapshot further, our attention is drawn to the stylish clothing displayed on a rail beside them. This serves as a reminder of how fashion played an integral role in shaping cultural movements during the swinging sixties. It also highlights the close relationship between music and fashion at that time. This photo encapsulates not only a significant milestone in The Troggs' career but also captures a moment filled with joy and camaraderie among band members who were undoubtedly relishing their newfound success. Freddie Reed's skillful lens has immortalized this iconic image from Memory Lane Prints for us all to cherish today.
