What a wonderful world we had, never to be ever again. WE were and still are so lucky to have been part of it. I was 11 years old and listened to Top of the Pops on a Sunday evening with my friends, I will never forget how wonderful it was. Great to listen to again.
I kept all my vinyl albums and 45rpm records. I also kept about 20 cassettes and kept all my cd’s too:) if you have only digital downloads, you really don’t own anything. Always wise to keep some physical copies. Now the younger generation has figured out that records have a warm sound that’s hard to capture on digital . They want old speakers too lol.
What has gone wrong with the world today? The news is constantly filled with depressing events: children carrying knives and committing murders, pensioners like myself living in fear within their own country, being advised to endure t he cold this winter. The last two administrations have resolved nothing. I've stopped going outside after dark. Yet, I can remain safely indoors, with TH-cam and a glass of my favorite beer, listening to the great music from my time. Long may music thrive, regardless of age. Ron Walker
The nationwide crime rate had dropped over the last thirty years. You are safer going outside now than you were in the 1980s. Stay inside if you like, that's your concern. But don't blame an "administration" for your decision to do so.

I was living in the 60s, Radio Caroline, mini skirts, Carnaby street, Mary quant, Isle of Wight festival of love 700k Hippies, Lambretta scooters, mods n rockers. What an awesome time we had. It will never happen again.
I was a Rocker but loved mod music,how wish I could go back to the great music and those happy days with no Responsibility’s . I was lucky all ways had lots of mates I wonder were they are now
I remember it well my lambretta scooter ,with 12 mirrors chrome everywhere, now its a disability scooter with piss and shit everywhere for fuck sake take me back😢
What great voices the female singers had then, I haven't heard anyone sing with such a beautiful voice lately. I love Helen Shapiro's voice and Petula Clark, Dusty Springfield, they all sing so well.
Same. Best music decade:) Late 59’s- mid 80’s. After 1990 music mostly went down the drain. Even young people that discover the old music mlove it and wonder why nobody makes music like whst we had . We were blessed.
Greatest time of my life. 12 in 1960 and the next years were such fun. Ah when I think of the way this country has become I could weep. We never imagined it would go so badly. Thank goodness we can relive through the music that brings back so many memories.
There will never ever be a better decade for music, long live the 60's, I miss that time so much. I just want to wrap my arms around the great times I had and still foundly remember.
Thanks Pete, for this great compilation of music of the Sixties coming out of the UK, thanks a million, really enjoyed it!! "Sugar and Spice" by the Searchers was one of my favourites and loved the Searchers and the rest of the artists for UK from Dusty Springfield, Beatles, Rolling Stones, The Hollies, Cliff and the rest. The best most exciting decade of our lives. These videos you have mixed are great and thanks for all you do to help us relive the best years of our lives!!😀🥰❤🙏🙏🙏
I didn't look at all the comments but would like to recognize maybe my favorite British female vocalist from this era, Sandie Shaw. Beautiful voice and Beautiful girl.

Yes! And she could sing in several languages. A very gifted artist.
My favourite in this is matt Monroe, as I've got a bit older, I've realised that the control he had over his glorious baritone voice, is just fantastic, in some ways a bit like Tony Bennett. Where his skill and tone was often overlooked. Thank you for posting.
Me too...1947 ,and growing up in Australia till 1966 then California ...we were lucky to live through such fab music and times..well,maybe NOT the Vietnam war which haunted and killed tons..including many dear friends...but we rocked on...jukka
I loved it when Tony Jackson was lead singer in the Searchers. Thankfully I grew up through this generation of great music. The Hollies? fantastic saw them several times back in the day.
I absolutely agree with you Tony Jackon was just the best I loved The Searchers when everybody was going mad over The Beatles it was the Searchers for me even The Byrds admired the jangling sound of the Searchers it broke my heart when Tony Jackson was ousted out of The Searchers yes ousted out of the group Tony had no say in the matter I was surprised Mike Pender had no say in the matter but I still followed Tony after he left The Searchers Long live their music Nige
1960 the golden times, I had it all good job, motor bike,lots of good friends,Bolton palie, navada,silly games in Queen’s Park Sunday morning fourteen or more of us playing piggy,couple of beers Saturday night and none of us even thought about drugs we didn’t need them to live a happy life.
Am 76 and this was my life in my teens, i usualy have to close my eyes listening to my music, not this time, a visual feast, thank you for a repeat of my life, 5am in Perth Western Australia, from Ashby England.
Great Songs that bring back wonderful memories for me, my Mum and Dad and my beautiful siste were still here with me what more could a man ask for Love Nige x
Dusty had a phenomenal voice! But she had little self-belief - when she recorded a vocal she had the backing track in her headphones turned up so loud she couldn’t hear what she was singing. My wife helped look after her when she had a breakdown in the sixties… A brilliant talent!!
Thanks for the interesting comments John ..Here is a link to a recent video I made as a tribute to Dusty. I hope you enjoy it. th-cam.com/video/smtvJF_m678/w-d-xo.html
John Surry..wow didn’t know that about Dusty. Glad your wife was there to take care of her. Dusty had such a beautiful voice and interpretation of songs.
@@esthergarcia1373 She was a troubled soul - she was gay at a time when pop stars were always straight, and being gay was ‘bad’. But her voice and interpretation of songs were unparalleled.
I was in catering for a time back in the 60's and Dusty became our hero when she poured a bowl of soup over a head waiter who was abusing a server. Loved her and her voice.
@@chrispypancake That’s great to hear, especially from a time when, dare I say, abuse of women was widely accepted as a ‘bit of fun’. Great voice, great woman!
Girl in class above went out with Hollies guitarist on right, the young looking one. How awesome was that. They used to hang out in men's trendy shop The Forgery in Mersey Square, Stockport.
It was melody..everyone then could easily remember the melody of a good beat good words..with only 3 or 4 chords..on guitar. Oh those beautiful times. Even my Parents loved the 60s music..they could remember melodies. Bless them now passed..
Great voice and so nice to be feminine how I loved the 60s I am now 75 the 60s has enriched my life I am sure of this a huge thank you for my life time xxxxx
People today don't know she was the exception of cliff and the shadows the biggest selling uk singer from 61/62 notching up 2 no.1s and 2 top 10s whilst still at school and having brief appearances in several movies, she did have another top 10 hit and a few minor hits from 63-64 but they dried up and she ended up on the circuit playing on cruise ships and recording standard's. I think her 2nd no.1 hit came just as she celebrated her 15th birthday
Incredible video of the Hollie’s singing I’m alive. Saw them in Glasgow in maybe 1965. Took the wrong train back to Saltcoats and ended up in Ayr in the middle of the night. We walked and hitch hiked back to Saltcoats. Great night!
Searchers from Love Potion #9 to Needles and Pins. Absolute Gold! Dusty Springfield best female singer to come out of The British Invasion. Shame she had such a traumatic childhood. I saw her speak about her Dad and how he used to tell her ugly and worthless she was. It scarred her life. Her lack of self confidence and self worth was palpable. She died of Breast Cancer 13 days before she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999. Such a Heart Breaker. Extroidinary talent! The Hollies were The best male group to come out of the British Invasion. So underrated and as far as I'm concerned far better than the Beatle. Allen Clarke's voice was untouchable! One of the Best if not the Best male voice of that generation. Allen, Tony and Graham complimented each other like no other group did. Even when Graham left and Terry came in they lost nothing. They were just as good as they'd ever been. I'm Alive, Kerry Ann, On a Carousel, Sorry Suzanne, The Air that I Breath, He ain't Heavy and the list goes on. Outstanding!
Thank you for the great comments Renee and also for taking the time to watch. Here is a link to my recent Dusty tribute. th-cam.com/video/smtvJF_m678/w-d-xo.html
I was born in 1950...and the early 1960s started The Best Era ever for Pop Music...🎸🎸!!The opening Bars of "Sugar&Spice" brought it all flooding back!...1962...Songs like "Please Please Me " introduced me to who else but....The Beatles!!...Dansette Record Player ,Grundig Tape Recorder,Ferguson Transistor Radio..the List is endless!!...Todays Generation really don't have the Music that we had!! ...Just came across "I'm Alive"(17:12) by The Hollies...one of the best 1960s songs followed by Cillas "You're My World ".....perfection!!
born '45 so I saw US Rock N Roll from the beginning, in high school day we learned Buddy Holly killed plane crash. In 6 am news, got to high school and principal said he was cancelling school, janitorial staff was not big enough for all the girls crying. When we got music from your side of the pond it too was great. My personal favorite was Herman Hermits.
Loved Matt Monroe..rarely hear his wonderful voice nowadays..l remember Frank Sinatra saying that he had a much better voice than he did and when he first heard him sing he did some investigation and said he'd have become bigger than Sinatra himself IF he had been taller..l think Monroe was only just around 5" 7
My heart goes to Dusty's family, friends and fans. I'm sad for her...I loved her music. And when anyone says "you look like Dusty"..........what a compliment but I can't sing! NOT EVEN HAPPY BIRTHDAY.............nope
Gehört habe ich die Musik Abends ab 8Uhr. Radio Luxemburg Englisch. Der WDR hatte sowas nicht drauf. Ich war 13 und schon arbeiten. Und schon mehrmals im Konzert von Cliffi. Herrlich. Bin jetzt 76.aber sowert noch flott.
It's an enigma to me that Helen Shapiro never broke into the US charts (except for "Walking Back To Happiness", reaching #100). Her unique voice and considerable song catalog should have ensured international success.
Yeah...it's sad sometimes, how some very good songs didn't venture far from their home base. Over here in Canada (Toronto) the only song that, I can recall hearing...wasn't the one that you knew. I will play "Walking Back To Happiness" after sending this text. The only song by her that I recall way back was "I Don't Care"...which I truly loved and still do. Infact, I think that I will play both. Thank You
It Was *Special For Me To Once Again See Young Sir Cliff Richard In Clips From The Movie "Summer Holiday"...Which Brings Me Back To Memories Of My Brother Being At "The Downtown" Theatre And Remembering How We Sang & Danced Home To The Song "Put On Your Dancing Shoes". Thank You For That.
That is a good point Linda ..I have to admit I didn't notice before. We all wore them in those days ..and most of us got them from the local Burton store . 🙂
Only for a short while. You couldnt get on TV as a singer unless you wore a suit, or like the American crooners slacks and shirt. It was one of the first things Brian Epstein changed to get the Beatles noticed and on the TV. Even the Stones first appearances were in suits. Within a very short space of time. around 65, the suits were out.
Linda.. I guess wearing suits kind of helped the parents accept them more for their children as entertainment and come across as decent guys. My dad who was a musician in his younger years liked a lot of our music and the wearing of the suits helped him be more acceptable of their performances. 😎
Beautiful tracks, we were the lucky ones to have been around to experience the incredible sounds of the sixties ❤ Thanks so much for putting these together, I've been watching all evening ♥️
Wow... Yardbirds, later to more or less morph into Led Zeppelin. Heart full of Soul is *still* one of my all-time favourites. Another great mix... thanks. :)
Hi Steve ..very interesting !! Here is my compilation of Helen vidos..There is a US version too ..as a couple of songs were blocked over there. th-cam.com/video/RsfDjdyZ9oU/w-d-xo.html
Fantastic selection of 60s music. There were even some I could not recall. Love summer holiday....cliff and the Shadows. I was just starting high school. Thanks for sharing God Bless
I worked in London all through the swinging sixties. Even then you knew it was a special time and would not last. Great to look back, even if cancer treatment wasn’t as good as it is now!
MET MY FUTURE SIS IN LAW 1960, WHEN SHE CAME UP TO OUR FLATS , TO FIND MY BROTHER AFTER MEETING HIM ON HOLIDAY, MAN SHE WAS 15 A GIRL OF THE 60IES A MODERN YOUNG GIRL R I P JULIA YOUR ALLWAYS IN MY HEART AMEN
That song Born Too Late by the Poni Tails springs to mind watching this. I was born in 63 but wish it could of been 15 years earlier, then l could have properly lived these great times.
Almost 75 now…sugar and spice… and tears in my eyes..
And Dusty’s voice, unsurpassable

me too...
Same here. I had no idea what a bitter struggle adult life would be. I am grateful for the memory of a happier time.
I feel the same way!
I'm 75, and remember them first time around. 😊👍. Great to hear them again. Can't find them on any radio stations. Thanks for the memories.

Gehört habe ich die Musik Abends ab 8Uhr. Radio Luxemburg Englisch. Der WDR hatte sowas nicht drauf. Ich war 13 und schon arbeiten. Und schon mehrmals im Konzert von Cliffi. Herrlich. Bin jetzt 76.aber sowert noch flott.
The Searchers were groomed to perfection. Great group.
It's truly a pleasure listening to all these '60 British pop classics.
I admire your work, and Thank you for sharing.
Have a lovely evening.
You too ..and thank you !! :)
Beautiful music is sunshine, and you bring us those sunshine.🙂.@@peteroberts4033

It's an enigma to me that Helen Shapiro never broke into the US charts (except for "Walking Back To Happiness", reaching #100). Her unique voice and considerable song catalog should have ensured international success.
It's an enigma to me that MARISOL never broke into UK charts.
MARISOL- Colores (1968) :

Yeah...it's sad sometimes, how some very good songs didn't venture far from their home base. Over here in Canada (Toronto) the only song that, I can recall hearing...wasn't the one that you knew. I will play "Walking Back To Happiness" after sending this text. The only song by her that I recall way back was "I Don't Care"...which I truly loved and still do. Infact, I think that I will play both. Thank You
Bear in mind that Helen Shapiro was pre the "British invasion" otherwise she probably would have been a success in the US.
So toll wie die da aussahen mit ihren schönen Frisuren
und Anzügen.
Alles live.😊
😊😊😊
So glad I came across your wonderful compilations. Thank you Pete. IMHO the Sixties were the best decade I lived through.
Thanks Qorm..have only just seen your comment. 🙂
Proud to say,, I was there,,
Alan of The Hollies looked really good in leather trousers later..
Hunk of a man..ooo
I never comment.... but never say never!! Pete Roberts, THANK YOU!!!! beautifully combined and a joy to listen to xx
Very kind of you Miranda.. Thank you x 🙂
It Was *Special For Me To Once Again See Young Sir Cliff Richard In Clips From The Movie "Summer Holiday"...Which Brings Me Back To Memories Of My Brother Being At "The Downtown" Theatre And Remembering How We Sang & Danced Home To The Song "Put On Your Dancing Shoes".
Thank You For That.
Helen Shapiro what a legend you are!!🥰🤩
I was 13...loved the original Searchers
It's my youth. Thanks!
.Love this I must admit I dont know some of them but its Great Music.I Noticed back then the guys always wore suits .Its Kind of Nice .✌✌😄😄😉😉
That is a good point Linda ..I have to admit I didn't notice before. We all wore them in those days ..and most of us got them from the local Burton store . 🙂
Only for a short while. You couldnt get on TV as a singer unless you wore a suit, or like the American crooners slacks and shirt. It was one of the first things Brian Epstein changed to get the Beatles noticed and on the TV. Even the Stones first appearances were in suits. Within a very short space of time. around 65, the suits were out.
Linda.. I guess wearing suits kind of helped the parents accept them more for their children as entertainment and come across as decent guys. My dad who was a musician in his younger years liked a lot of our music and the wearing of the suits helped him be more acceptable of their performances. 😎
Are you by any chance related to a folk singer by the name of
Ellen Behnke?
I still do Linda. It is nice.
Beautiful tracks, we were the lucky ones to have been around to experience the incredible sounds of the sixties ❤
Thanks so much for putting these together, I've been watching all evening ♥️
Thanks Terry 🙂.
Wow... Yardbirds, later to more or less morph into Led Zeppelin. Heart full of Soul is *still* one of my all-time favourites. Another great mix... thanks. :)
Just play Jimmy
Love hearing Dusty sing and the Hollies too. Happy to see Windmills of my mind included in this group of songs. ❤️🙏🏻
Thanks Esther 🙂
Ooooh Keith Relf!! RIP
simply outstanding compendium of video and songs that helped literally save rock'n roll;
thank you;
And thank you Dreemeagle !! 🙂
The searchers were a great band the dressing was always very smart.
The influence of Brian Epstein spread to all the bands in the area as he insisted on making them smarter looking.
I am.married to Helen Shapiros neice. Helen i could listen to all day, her niece...fill in the blank chaps. 100% true
Hi Steve ..very interesting !! Here is my compilation of Helen vidos..There is a US version too ..as a couple of songs were blocked over there. th-cam.com/video/RsfDjdyZ9oU/w-d-xo.html
@@peteroberts4033 thank you that's so kind.
@@stevelee4952 You are welcome !! :)
@@stevelee4952 PS Send my love to Helen please..the best female voice of the 60's in my opinion. :)
@@peteroberts4033 I promise to do that.
Fantastic selection of 60s music. There were even some I could not recall. Love summer holiday....cliff and the Shadows. I was just starting high school. Thanks for sharing God Bless
So glad you like it Thomas ..thanks for watching and also the comment. :)
Thomas Bain.. is that the same Cliff Richards that sang a duet with Olivia Newton-John called “Suddenly”?
@@esthergarcia1373 Yes, that's right Esther, It's the same Cliff Richards (now sir Cliff Richards) . P.S. His real name is Harry Webb. God Bless.Tom
Meine Zeit. Ich liebe HelenSchapiro. Cilla Black Walker Brothers. USW. Von 60.bis 65.das war toll. Versteht heute keine mehr
I worked in London all through the swinging sixties. Even then you knew it was a special time and would not last. Great to look back, even if cancer treatment wasn’t as good as it is now!
Nice to see the Yardbirds with Jimmy Page in a colour vid, even if it was a miming clip from 1968 and he didn't play on the recording in '66. Thanks !
Thanks for taking the time to watch Frost. Interesting facts.
I'm from England these songs have many memories,I just would like to know if it could have more volunm
You need to turn the volume up to 11 Rita . 🙂😉
Love The Hollies, especially this tune: 16:54, wasn't very big in the U.S. GREAT tune though.
MET MY FUTURE SIS IN LAW 1960, WHEN SHE CAME UP TO OUR FLATS , TO FIND MY BROTHER AFTER MEETING HIM ON HOLIDAY, MAN SHE WAS 15 A GIRL OF THE 60IES
A MODERN YOUNG GIRL R I P JULIA YOUR ALLWAYS IN MY HEART AMEN
That song Born Too Late by the Poni Tails springs to mind watching this. I was born in 63 but wish it could of been 15 years earlier, then l could have properly lived these great times.
michalcooke8586- Thank you so much for sharing same comment
