Synopsis

Brian Matthew presents the programme for all fans of the music of the 1960s. This week the A-Z of The Beatles reaches ' Why Don't We Do It In The Road'. The featured EP is by The Rolling Stones, there's an instrumental by The Who and tracks from Ambrose Slade, Ray Charles, Roy Orbison, The Roulettes and Family Dogg.

With facts, figures and trivia as well as the classic hits, rarities, instrumentals and album tracks, the selection sweeps right across the most important decade for popular music from beginning to end.

Sounds Of The Sixties began in 1983 and Brian has been at helm since 1990, bringing to the programme his distinctive voice and unmatchable experience of sixties pop shows.
