With Sounds of the Sixties. Brian Matthew presents facts, figures and trivia as well as the classic hits, rarities, B sides, obscurities, instrumentals and album tracks of the '60s.

Brian Matthew presents the programme for all fans of the music of the 1960s. With facts, figures and trivia as well as the classic hits, rarities, B sides, obscurities, instrumentals and album tracks, the selection sweeps right across the most important decade for popular music from beginning to end.

Including requests, dedications and regular features: The A-Z of the Beatles this week features a demo version of Paul's song 'Teddy Boy' from the Let It Be sessions. Stuck On Two replays hits from across the Atlantic which didn't quite make it to the top of the charts; The Song Swap features two hit covers from well-known artists; and Playing Hard To Get is for listeners who have a favourite song but who have lost the original record.

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.
