American top 20 newcomers June '62; a tribute to the last member of The Platters; songs with the theme of "little darlin."

One Hit Wonders – one-off British chart hits from the well-known to the deeply obscure – from Big Dee Irwin to The Marauders
Little Darlin’s – an affectionate theme with contributions from The Diamonds, Fats Domino, Doris Day and others
Herb Reed – a tribute to the last surviving member of The Platters, now lost to us
And, to finish with, The American Top 20 Newcomers of June 1962, including Ben E. King, Bobby Vinton & Freddy Cannon
