I LOVE 1960
Music

The Sixties hadn't exactly got swinging yet, but the Hit Parade was alive with groovy guys quickstepping to the strains of 'Apache'.

JukeboxJukebox
Listen to all the No.1 hits of 1960, including Lonnie Donegan, The Shadows, Adam Faith, and the King himself - Cliff.


The KingElvis Presley
It was the only year he visited the UK - and he made the most of it, staying exactly as long as it took to refuel his plane (allegedly).


Lonnie DoneganLonnie Donegan
The king of skiffle wowed audiences with his heartwarming tale of a friendly dustman - not 'arf.
