Marianne Faithfull's back in the album charts; tickets are on sale for a major new exhibition at the V&A dedicated to Mary Quant in Spring 2019; the Kinks' Village Green Preservation Society celebrates its 50th anniversary and Dave Davies is hinting that he may have patched things up in the rift with his brother Ray and the band may reform in 2019; and PP Arnold, Manfred Mann, The Searchers, Herman's Hermits, Swinging Blue Jeans and Joanna Lumley are all on tour in the UK - the 60s has never been trendier.
How opportune that it is Miss Petula Clark's birthday today - and here, by way of celebration, a Swinging 60s extravaganza!
Many happy returns, Petula Clark CBE (born Sally Olwen Clark, 15th November 1932)
One of my favorite Petula Tunes.
ReplyDeleteShe has such a massive back catalogue; it's difficult to choose. Jx
DeleteOoh I've seen Manfred Mann live! They were fantastic!
ReplyDeleteIn their most recent incarnation, both Paul Jones and Mike D'Abo are part of he band, and they're on tour with... Georgie Fame! I imagine that would be a great night's entertainment. Jx
