Brian Matthew presents the programme for all fans of the music of the 1960s. Tracks this week include: The Critters, Tom Jones, Jimmy Justice, Donovan and The Velvets. There are two from Herman's Hermits and the Three-In-A-Row is chosen by Pete from Sheffield who has selected Albert Hammond/Lee Hazlewood collaborations. 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. This week's Sixties Chronicles looks at the sales of Lady Chatterley's Lover, how John met Yoko, what Our 'Enry did next, Apollo 12 and Britain's first local radio station in Leicester. 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 shows.
