Synopsis
Including classic artists this week Neil Sedaka, The Seekers, R.Dean Taylor, Tommy Roe, Joe Brown, The Who, The Box Tops and on the rarer side The Anglicans, Love, The Formations, The Alan Bown, Frankie Lee, Trash and Beryl Marsden.
The BBC Session track comes from Pink Floyd recorded in 1968 at The Piccadilly Studios. The Loose Connections this week has a theme to do with transport (you will need to make the connection!) and Tchaikovsky makes an appearance. There's also a record from Coronation Street's singing milkman - but what is his name and what was his connection with Telly Savalas?
1961
