Best of 1964 pop music - Pop Gear review by CP Customer
Various bands perform their hits. Links by DJ Jimmy Saville give this the feel of a TV pop show, although there is no audience. There's some great stuff here Billy J Kramer, the animals, honeycombs, Peter amd Gordon, Spencer Davis group and many others.
Even though I wasn't around at the time I knew many of these songs and it was good to see the bands in full colour. This is a must for any fan of 1960's pop.
