old times and listen to some of the most influential sounds of the
era by the original hit makers of the decade.

Along with The Beatles, the Merseybeats were one of the main
exponents of the Liverpool sound that had such a huge influence on
the music industry around the world. Expect to hear their hits
including I Think Of You, Don't Turn Around, Wishin' and Hopin', and Yes I Do.
Also on the line-up is Wayne Fontana, known for his songs Game of
Love and Pamela Pamela, The Dakotas famous for their number ones Bad
For Me and Little Children , and special guest John Walker of the
