As with many things recently, I never would’ve known that these Toytown CDs existed if not for this site here. As I sit here, desperately trying to write something about the ’60s, these tracks are the perfect gadfly reminding me that I know alot less about the period than I imagined. Thanks for the link.

Cheers Tilt – I got a feeling some of these would have been right up your alley especially with the Gibb brothers leaving their treacle toffee stained fingers all over the writers’ credits.

Thanks for the plug, Andrew! Unfortunately, due to Blogger's sadistic insistence on screwing up all my formatting I had to re-post that item. (And yes, needless to say, it then set about screwing up the formatting on that! It's just about readable now, but only after a fight.) Should anyone be interested, that post is now here.

The Gerry Marsden track is a Bee Gees cover. Not a Bee Gees song I ever paid much attention to, but their 60s style is so unmistakable that it immediately identified itself as such in my mind. Damn those who write off 60s Bee Gees as being nothing more than Beatles ripoffs.

Many thanks, Tez, if you’re reading this.
