Brian Matthew presents the programme for all fans of the music of the 1960s.
The A-Z of The Beatles, which is working its way through their entire catalogue, reaches 'Yer Blues'. 'The EP Collection' looks at one of the 4-track vinyl releases which featured The Kinks. 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. Tracks include Billy Fury, The Herd, The Four Tops, Andy Williams, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Unit 4+2 and blues man Duster Bennett. And just who was Ray Cathode?

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.
