Music from the golden age of rock 'n' roll: country style rock, R and B number ones 1963; songs on the theme of "work".
Work – Roy Orbison, Lee Dorsey & The Chordettes will be among those slaving away to illustrate this opening theme.
The R&B No. 1 Hits – this regular series has now reached the spring and summer of 1963 when Sam Cooke & Lesley Gore were among those ruling the roost.
Rockin’ Country Style – rock ‘n’ roll hits covered for the country market by the likes of Marty Robbins & Webb Pierce.
And, to finish with, a Countdown Finale – with The Drifters, The Shirelles and others.
