Skinhead is a British phenomenon. I was a skinhead Rudeboy and I was into all the old stuff but mostly Two-tone, Selector, The Specials, Madness, the Beat, Bodysnatchers and if I had a time machine I'd go back to 1980 and stay there forever, that's my heaven. God bless the true skins and the Rudeboys.
I was at school back then and we had 4 distinct groups: Ska Skins, Oi Skins, Rudeboys and Mods. The Oi Skins were Skinheads that were into Oi, Punk and harder music. Some of them were racists. The Ska Skins & Rudeboys liked the same music but looked and dressed differently.
And so the moral of this guys message is to never be ashamed of who you are ,whether its skin ,mod , rocker , punk , or whatever that's what makes Britain Great Granny 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Growing up in compton ca i was the only skinhead around and brown. I'm 37 now and still lacing up my boots. i'll get the cross looks here and there but it's all good . Skinhead till I die.
Skinhead is an attitude towards life. Above all a working class attitude. Even though I don’t look like one anymore I am still a skin deep down inside. It’s in my heart. I kept all me clothes even though they didn’t fit anymore and some I gave away to younger skins the new blood as they say. I am retired now lol. I am still the same person with the same interests as back then. I still listen to all the music, still go to the football, still lift weights at the gym, still love boxing preferably unlicensed bareknuckle and still have a laugh and have a say. No mess, no fuss just pure impact!
Made in Britain and damn proud to be British,it's more than fashion, music,it's a statement of life that could never ever come from anywhere else.....in ... edible/gastro terminology it's " THE FULL ENGLISH" ,I'm not a SKINHEAD but I've got nothing but massive respect for all of them and to listen to them over a beer or two is infectious and eye opening into a way of life that truly means and has a purpose of genuine brotherhood ....... listen ...watch....dress...be...educated!!!!
If you had a older brother who dressed smart as a mod, but he in the later 60's became a hippie type (for example). He would probably still have a lot of good clothes in the house that he would no longer wear and occasionally in the shed or garage a scooter (cheap transport). Those clothes that he no longer wanted would now fit the younger brother, who may not be impressed by the hippie fashion and wanted something smarter. The original 'skinheads' did not like the music/fashion of the late 60's and wanted something new/fresh. They found it in ska/bluebeat/reggae brought in from Jamaica etc....and they married this to the look of the earlier mod style of clothes, because they simply wanted to look smart. They needed to protect these clothes whilst going out in the uk weather, but did not want to be 'new mods' or a revival. So they looked for something that did the job of a parka, but looked smarter. The most popular option was the 'crombie' style overcoat in general. So to a point its true that the mods and skinheads have a lot in common. The original 'skinheads' were more the 'rude boy' look from the 2-tone/ska revival in dress/attitude. Skinheads were mostly around cities with good transport links and cars were more popular than scooters in general , but scooter skins and scooter clubs did exist in many parts of the country. Being a mod/rude boy/skinhead/scooterist is a great way of life and if you become one, it moulds the rest of your life, for the better in my opinion. Be proud and love your country.
A man who knows the history. My brother was a Mod and I didn't buy into that scene,so in 68 when this new fashion was coming in it suited me. You are also right about the music we adopted that after the trend started, the great lie is that the movement was started by Reggae and the rude boys this not true they were just a small part of it. We lived in Hammersmith west London, brought our Records in Shepherds Bush and Brixton markets, drank in several pubs in Notting hill/ Brixton and never had any trouble in any of those locations. And it was all over by 70/71 thats when hordes of young fourteen, fifteen year olds started becoming Skinheads and that ruined it for the older guys. A lot more silly aggro, vandalism and assorted stupidity. A moment in time I'm glad I didnt miss, but you can't turn the clock back more's the pity. Just to prove that it never leaves you, my message alert is the opening fanfare from Long shot kick de bucket and my ring tone is Double Barrel by Dave and Ansel Collins.
Iam a Skinhead and a member of the National Front but am no Racist! I just resent my Country being ruled by unelected Zionist bureaucrats in Brussels and uncontrolled immigration! As for Skins not developing from Jamaican reggae, I am wholly with you on that one!
We were running 200 Lambrettas early in the 70's..we got mixed up with suedeheads and NS, hair grew a bit longer, trousers tapered then wide, then tapered again...wow what a mix...
Been a Skinhead since I was 16...I'm 36 now...I started out in the Neo Nazi's....hate bashing without being educated about it!! Then I started getting educated, Started loving my nation, and my people!! Canada was founded on multi cultural-ism...So how can I honestly believe the white race is Superior in Canada? So I left my position in Right Wing Resistance Canada, I was former 3rd in command, Commander of the Retaliators! I've had many threats upon my life...many brothers wont ever speak to me again...But sometimes the Wolf must stand alone! Sometimes we must Stand for what we believe (Alone) even in the face of danger!! to me, that makes me who I am Today!! OI! OI! OI!
I’m for boneheads that come clean, get it right and still having the balls to fly the skinhead flag. Glad to hear you got your head on straight! Skinhead Forever Forever Skinhead
Love it man. I don't know why it's called skinheads and people think it's racist. It's just people wanting their way of life with their own people. Why is it so hard to have a country for our own
Because Britain exploited and ruined the rest of the world so they could prosper. Now when people leave those torn up countries to safer ones like Britain the British act like they're not the reason they're there.
I was a skinhead in 1971, not racist, my friend was a Bengali, it was the music that did it for me, I hated the pop and progressive rock music, I just liked soul and reggae and my favourite disco played reggae
Yank here, hard rocker 1st. discovered punk 40 + yrs ago..skin/ Oi came naturally along w/ reggae. The stripped down, meat & potatoes of Oi is the fucking best, cheers.
Good topic. I've been a Skinhead for thirty six years. I'm no racist but I'm very proud to be white. I think all race's/ cultures are great but I don't pander to any of them and don't expect them to me. A great way of life and the music is fantastic. Going to see the Specials this April and still watch Last resort etc...
Sorry but being "very proud to be white" is by definition racist. If you're a a swazi bonehead then out with being a sorry WP knob. Traditionalists (Traditional, Trad Skinheads) are all well and good unless they're only of that sort so they can lean right while they sit on the fence about social and political issues.
@@kyczrad1 I'm 40... I was a skinhead in the mid 90's. I had two good mates murdered by a local White Pride crew in 98. I don't take comments like that with a grain of salt. Yes you're definitely finding words "hard to find" in general. You're proud to be White? Why would you be proud of your race? Be proud of the achievements you've made in life, not something you were born with and did nothing to attain. Things may be different for your from and you simply vocalized an idea that was lost in translation. If that's the case, I apologize but fix it. Something like: "I consider myself luck I don't have to go through the hardships other Races, Ethnicities, Religions, Gender, Sexualities have to go through. It's terrible that they do have to go through life experiencing troubles I never will have to." would clear it up.
You're only half right. Skinhead came from both Mods, AND Jamaican Rude boys. Still nice to see some old timers carrying the torch, though. (Even if this video DID come across as an advert for your scooter club, at times)
I was an original Skinhead in 1969/70/71 I was a Skinhead then a boot boy then suedehead, because the times changed and Glam rock came in and if course my hair grew and I was a Glam rocker 😮 But Glam died in 1976/77 when punk rock came in, but I was pleased when the Skinheads came back into fashion.. but the Original Skinheads were tough but it was about the music as well. Ok there was trouble but a lot of it was overblown 😮
Very interesting , im not a skin but do like SKA , couldnt agree more about the biker analogy , ive never left the science in any way for over 35 years and have no time for role play Rolex retro rebels .
real skins are related to jamaicans, without rudeboys,hard mods wouldn't exist, and i am still a skinhead even if i've grown some hair, im still skinhead at heart and soul, it will never go away, i never had a scooter, but skinhead subcultre isn't all about that, it's about music, friendship and even nowadays there's skinhead gamers its the new breed, online generation like some call it, skinheads aren't dead, just a new wave. and there will always come a new wave of skins because you know skinhead 4 life, not bonehead that's a totally different thing.
skin is a staying fashion, Itll always be around and every so often it rolls back around into the mainstream again, its the media that portray skin in such a bad way because its more sensationalist to say that you can identify a nazi by how they look rather than it could be anyone
@@stevelira52524 North East PA. Back in the 1980's there were dozens of WP skins in the north east. A ton of trads, too. WP skins and the trads got along fine.
Right on. I'm out of Texas. Went back to San Antonio on leave in 94 met a bunch of S.A. Skinheads then and since moving there (off and on since 97) once you were out the drive by Skinheads (???yeah I know) S.A. has had a strong scene. Of course the highlights of my Saturday nights now a days is sitting back taking pride...............in the garden I started on (Spinach, garlic, peppers, Oi!)...................yeah. Oldness.
"it didn't come from Jamaica" ok why the ska and reggae and the whole you know skinhead label which is originally from JAMAICA? only mod bits are some clothing and vespas foh
aye all these 50+ yr old skinheads just remind me of all.the old men still dressed as teddy boys, bit creepy.its a youth thing and thats why i packed in when was 24, and dont get me started on the weekend skinheads lol
I came across this and was a bit confused, but flooded with thought. And going to reasearch. A counter movement against extreme racist/ predgedist movement?
How comes everytime you see a doc or feature on skins, they are falling over themselves to stress 'oh no, skins was never racist, we all wanted to be rude boys, and were influenced by Jamaicans, who were all our pals', yet pretty much every skin i ever met was, if not overly racist, defo nationalistic. And that's not a criticism, far from it, just fact. Fair play to this guy, this sounds more like the true skins. I think it's the absolute minority that looked up to Jamiacan culture or aspired to be like them at all, despite what every fucker on BBC would have you think. Yeah that listened to ska in the early days, but that was that.
Talking Wyvern i was a part of Punk/Skin gang and we were definitely Antifascist and Antirascist. The roots of Skinheads are black and white, so as the the lad in the Video says.
What are you rambling about? Skinheads didn´t look up to Jamaican culture or aspired to be like them. It isn´t that simple, so just drop it. It can be very hard to understand, even if you have been in the skinhead scene for 10-20 years. Most documentaries, books and stuff like to tell the same narrative. But it isn´t as simple as they often make it sound. It was a thing that happened then and there. Times where a changing, and a lot of things happened in the UK. In all this, two workingclass cultures came to merge with each other, to what years later became to be known as a subculture wich they called "Skinheads". There is thousands of crucial elements that needs to be taken in consideration. It´s a natural phenomenon.
0:19 Skinhead didn't "come" from Jamaica but a lot of their influences did. Both mods and skinheads were influenced by Jamaican rude boys and there was overlap between all three.
