Logo for The Top 60 Best Selling Records of the 60s

Tony Blackburn counts down the biggest selling singles of the 1960s in a chart specially compiled for Radio 2. Expect The Beatles and The Rolling Stones to crop up more than once, alongside a couple of crooners, a few instrumentals and even the odd one-hit-wonder, in a chart that throws up some genuine surprises. Alongside the music, we also relive some of the big news stories of the era with original archive footage of events that defined the decade.
