Friday Night Extra 1.2.19. 60s special.

We had a special show tonight featuring mainly music from the 1960s. 12 year old Amy, who reads the weather and events chatted throughout the first hour. She said at the start that she knew nothing about 60s music. By 9 o’clock she was a convert! This week in 1969 was the feature chart. In the second hour we heard about the career of the Everley Brothers. Sue and Leonard listening in Kentucky told us that where they live now is about 10 miles from where Don and Phil were born. They also told  us that the Everly’s music had many special memories for them.  Last week we heard about the Baby Shower Bake Off at Margaretting C of E Primary today. I was lucky enough to attend. Part of the activities was a quiz with 14 questions about Harry and Megan. I asked 5 of them tonight. Patrick was the winner, e-mailing in 3 correct answers. More next week!

Tonight’s playlist

Bob Dylan – The times they are a changing

Beatles – Hello, goodbye
