Brian Matthew selects classics and rarities from the 60s, including a Loose Connection linking the Who's The Kids Are Alright, the Small Faces' Patterns and Marmalade's Butterfly.

There's a Loose Connection tying The Kids Are Alright by The Who, The Small Faces' Patterns and Marmalade's 1969 release, Butterfly, together - but can you guess what it is?

Brian will be dishing out the stories behind the songs of the era, as he honours listener requests for tracks by The Rolling Stones, The Alan Bown, Glasgow band The Clyde Valley Stompers, Tommy James & The Shondells, Long John Baldry and Guyanese star Cy Grant.
