Early mod members listened to the "complex and fluid Modern Jazz" of musicians Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Dave Brubeck and Modern Jazz Quartet, as well as the American rhythm and blues (R&B) of artists Bo Diddley and Muddy Waters. The music scene of Mods combines modern jazz, R&B, psychedelic rock and soul. Starting around 1960, mods embraced the off-beat, Jamaican ska music of artists such as The Skatalites, Owen Gray, Derrick Morgan and Prince Buster on record labels such as Melodisc, Starlite and Bluebeat.
