Brian Matthew kick-starts the weekend with hits, facts and obscurities from the 60s, including the A- and B-sides of the Ivy League's 1965 release Funny How Love Can Be.

The Ivy League gets a double spin this week as Brian dusts off their 1965 release 'Funny How Love Can Be' and plays both the A and original B side.

Avid requests this week include songs from the likes of Johnny Cymbal, The VIPs, Strawberry Children, Jose Feliciano, Beryl Marsden and a rare track from The Robb Storme Group, who would later become The Orange Bicycle.
