No internet, no social media, no potholes, police were everywhere, you could see a doctor and dentist within 24 hours, EU didn’t exist, freedom of speech, no one getting offended at the slightest little thing-what’s not to like! Great days, great music, no worries, no one getting murdered every 5 minutes like there is today. When you compare it to today, I realise what wonderful days they were! But then, I guess that when you’re kids nothing matters much does it. You have no worries. It’s only when you become adults that life takes on a whole new meaning-one that we may or not like. Situations and circumstances can dictate how much we either enjoy life or find it extremely difficult. So, enjoy it while you can and never forget the memories. They are with you for the rest of your life!

I guess the only difference between now and then is that when we were kids, we all saw life so differently. None of the above mattered to us, but it does now because we’ve grown up, seen what the world is like and what it can do to you, and our own children.

We're living under this dark cloud that could burst any day, unleashing upon us the most terrifying hell one can imagine.

In 1963 I was 14. The music, singers, and groups were absolutely fab! Their hair styles and clothing were very attractive! The 60s was an era that could never be repeated. The world has changed so much. Today, I'm 75 and consider myself as a teenager in an older person's body! My daughter, who is in her late 30s, grew up listening to the singers and groups, and she absolutely loves the 1960s music !

Georgie FAME was awesome. I love his Ballad of Bonnie & Clyde a few years later. LULU was only 15? Wow. And Sandie Shaw's honesty - she preferred the other side of the 45 she was singing! Peter & Dudley!!! It is a CRIME that ALL of these shows were not preserved.

Fascinating to see Cilla Black coping with a live interview when she was barely out of the Cavern cloakroom. She was destined to become Britain's queen of TV entertainment hosting with Blind Date and Surprise Surprise. Her singing took a back seat.

As a 76 yo this brings great memories. in those days these acts appeared live in shows around the country alongside other stars. I saw Lulu with the Beachboys. Dusty Springfield with the Nashville Teens, The Animals with Carl Perkins and Elkie Brooks. Probably the best bill was Them with Nice, Amen Corner, Pink Floyd, The Move and Jimmy Hendrix. I was also at the live recording of Chuck Berry's My Ding-a-ling on the same bill as Slade and Billy Preston. All these shows were in a theatre or dance hall at affordable prices for a schoolboy or apprentice. I had to wait until 2019 to see the Rolling Stones - £250 (my son treated me). Oh to relive those days not a female tattoo, nose ring or Botox in sight.

These are the times you try to explain to your children and grandchildren and see in their eyes that they simply cannot comprehend it all. Suddenly teenagers and early twenty somethings were dictating what good music and fashion is and anyone disagreeing was a square and told to get lost. Boring BBC radio suddenly had illegal competition from the likes of Radio Caroline playing none stop pop day and night and no amount of threatening listeners with prosecution for tuning into these radio pirates could change it. Everyone was buying transistor radios to listen in. I'll never forget how our teachers told us it was all just noise not really music and we'll have forgotten it all by next year. How wrong they were and we knew it. Basically it was a cultural revolution and although a teenager with not much money at the time I'd gladly go back and repeat it all again if I could.

I used to watch this show, religiously, never missing an episode. Everyone is miming, so what, the technology for recording rock music live barely existed in those far off days. It's all so raw and real, very fresh and groundbreaking. Organized chaos? Fridays and the weekend really did start with RSG. I knew people who didn't really sleep through Friday, Saturday and Sunday, turning up for work on Monday like Zombies! Gosh, those really were the days.

My grandmother own a salon in the 60s - I can still smell the hair lacquer and the ammonia based perming solution. Saturday was hectic as customers had their hair done for Saturday night out. It was all rollers, sit under hairdryers, back combing and lacquer from a squeezy bottle. On the counter she sold Rainmate plastic hoods to protect the coiffure if it rained. The strength of the lacquer often meant the hairstyle lasted for days, most women went out all with the same style!
