For anyone interested in 60s music this is worth watching start to finish. A gem rarely shown anywhere. Imagine Austin Powers pre-Spy getting to produce a show featuring the game changing biggest act in the world as London started to have global cultural eyes on it. Its weird n whimsical n touching n genres of a patchwork quilt showing how less than 3 years in the Fabs songs were making inroads everywhere.

I saw it in the 80s and immediately was sure i had seen it at the time due to Cilla's Its For You seeming familiar. I love this 50 minutes of music history! Oh and the songs are fab and they hadnt hit their peak years yet.😮

Thanks for sharing, I'll be sure to give that a watch when I get a moment

Same here!

Gave this a watch tonight and it was a good time with lots of unsurprisingly great compositions and silly humour from Lennon and McCartney. I wasn't expecting quite so much classical involvement so that was a pleasant surprise. I'm also really interested in '60s fashion so enjoyed it on that front too. Pleased someone dug up this gem!

I must've heard Marianne Faithfull's version of 'Yesterday' before when trawling the archives, as it just about made the top 40, but I'd totally erased it from memory if so. I enjoyed her take on it today anyway! Her voice is just beautiful. Esther Phillips' vocals also stood out and Lulu had a lot of energy.

Glad you liked it Jade, I was hoping you would 😎Silly humour and fashion leads right into Austin Powers 😄Yesterday was tastefully sweet, Esther Phillips' 1975 dance hit What A Difference A Day Made was a late compensation for not getting a hit here a decade earlier, great voice, and Lulu was a teenage bundle of Brenda Lee energy at this time 😄
