Brian Matthew plays sixties hits. The Chronicles remembers the launch of the SS Canberra, a new pound note, Paul McCartney's wedding and the Torrey Canyon disaster.

Tracks this week include The Beatles, Dusty, Len Barry, Led Zeppelin, Jack Scott, Francoise Hardy, The Marcels, Tom Jones and Oliver Tobias. There's a double A from Elvis and a question to answer: who played the cowbell on the Rolling Stones' recording of Honky Tonk Women?

The Chronicles of the Sixties looks back at the launch of the SS Canberra, a new 拢1 note, Paul McCartney's wedding and the Torrey Canyon disaster which polluted 120 miles of English coastline.
