Brian Matthew selects more hits and rarities from this classic era in music.

Brian Matthew delves in to his record collection to play the music that defined an era and reveal some of the stories behind the songs.

This week's Loose Connection is a little tricky than it first appears. So don't be fooled by the fact Day Tripper by the Vontastics, Good Day Sunshine by Claudine Longet and Fats Dominos' Lady Madonna are all Lennon/McCartney songs. Dig a little deeper and discover what ties these songs together.
