Our Take

The 10th volume of the "1961 British Hit Parade" series is a delightful romp through the musical landscape of yesteryear. Featuring various artists, this eclectic collection of tunes is a nostalgic treat for fans of 60s music.

Kicking off with The Everly Brothers' infectious hit "Walk Right Back", this album sets the tone for a trip down memory lane. With classic tracks from The Shadows, Eden Kane, and Helen Shapiro, listeners are transported back to a time when pop music was simple, yet undeniably catchy.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on this album. The moody crooning of Roy Orbison on "Running Scared" adds a touch of drama to the mix, while Del Shannon's haunting vocals on "Runaway" send shivers down the spine.

One standout track on this album is Joe Brown's "A Picture of You". With its catchy melody and heartfelt lyrics, this song is a shining example of the talent that was on offer in 1961.

Overall, the 10th volume of the "1961 British Hit Parade" series is a must-listen for fans of 60s music. So put on your dancing shoes, grab a cuppa, and let this album take you on a journey back in time. Cheers!
