Join me Paul Anthony and Keith Read as we travel back to an era that was "Swinging",  when life started to appear in "Technicolor" and we were good at most sports too.

The building blocks of Rock'n'Roll from the 1950's saw an explosion of some truly wonderful Artists.  On this side of the Pond we started to experience The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Joe Cocker and Lulu, whilst from America, the likes of Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix and The Beach Boys added to this ever expanding pop culture.



We had Flower Power, The Summer Of Love, Woodstock and the 1st Isle Of Wight Festival.



Man Landed on the Moon and those of us of a certain age knew where we were when J.F.K was shot.
