FRIDAY MUSIC: From the Sixties, by JD
I see we have been here before when I did a post of music ‘The Likely Lads’ would have been listening to in their younger days – https://theylaughedatnoah.blogspot.com/2025/08/friday-music-classic-hits-of-50s60s-by.html
The reference to the Golden Oldies channel on Freeview still applies and, if anything, it is worse than last year. Freeview used to have three channels devoted to ‘golden oldies’ but now there is just one and this is how they describe their ‘best of the sixties’:
“A selection of live performances from TV music shows in the 1960s for a genuine taste of the best of the ‘60s!
‘From TV music shows’ ought to have been a clue because a good proportion of the videos are from American TV variety shows and a lot of them feature unknown singers who are definitely not giving us a genuine taste of the Sixties.
This is what they ought to be playing but you will never hear them on golden oldies channels either on TV or on radio. And it is a very eclectic and always melodic mix.
Cream – Badge
Mary Wells – My Guy
The Drifters – Under The Boardwalk (Official Video) Re-Mastered
The Scaffold – Lily The Pink
The Doors – Love Street
Martha & the Vandellas – Heatwave
Ben E. King / All Star Band – Stand By Me (The Prince’s Trust Rock Gala 1987)
Plenty more where that came from. The problem was what to leave out!
And yes George Harrison did play on that Cream song but for copyright reasons he was listed on the album cover as l’angelo Misterioso.
Ben E King’s song has been covered by 400 artists and is a timeless classic. It was inspired by a gospel song By Sam Cooke called ‘Stand By Me, Father’
Hope you enjoy that selection as much as I do.
