Our Take

Ah, the British Hit Parade of 1962! A time when music was groovy, fashion was fabulous, and hair was sky-high. In this latest installment of the B Sides collection, we are taken on a nostalgic journey through the lesser-known tracks of that iconic year.

The album kicks off with The Shadows' "The Savage", a haunting instrumental that sets the tone for the rest of the record. The simplicity of the track allows the listener to truly appreciate the raw talent of this legendary group.

As we journey further into the album, we are treated to hidden gems from artists such as Cliff Richard, The Tornados, and John Leyton. Each track offers a different take on the sound of 1962, from the surf rock vibes of The Tornados' "Earthy", to the melancholic crooning of John Leyton's "Wild Wind".

But perhaps the standout track of the album comes from The Springfields with their infectious tune "Bambino". With its catchy chorus and infectious beat, it's impossible not to tap your feet along to this toe-tapping masterpiece.

Overall, British Hit Parade 1962 The B Sides Part 2 is a delightful trip down memory lane for music lovers and nostalgia-seekers alike. So put on your dancing shoes, crank up the volume, and let the sounds of 1962 transport you to a simpler, groovier time. A must-listen for any fan of vintage vibes and good tunes!
