The Sound of Now, mentioned in ’The Return of Jack Slade’ by Derrick Morgan, was the sound of 1969/1970 and that sound was the sound of Jamaican reggae.

The look at that time was the Skinhead fashion that again borrowed heavily from the Jamaican Rude Boy style. The skinhead movement started around 1968 and by the following year of 1969 became the style and fashion of the British teenagers. The uniform of the skinheads consisted of boots, braces and jeans and the upbeat reggae sounds seemed to match the style perfectly.
