October 1, 200816 yr I likes.... 2 Roy Orbison - Oh Pretty Woman - what a riff. 3 The Four Seasons - Rag Doll - much prefer Kevin Rowland's cover though. 14 The Kinks - You Really Got Me - what a riff. 15 The Zombies - She's Not There - great song. 30 Chuck Berry -You Never Can Tell - didn't realise this was released so late, I thought it was much earlier.

October 2, 200816 yr Oh Pretty Woman is one of my favourite songs from the 1960s - excellent intro and a brilliant song.
October 3, 200816 yr Author Talking of the Searchers track. IMHO it is not a patch on the original: 5JRv6iCCYQo Jackie DeShannon - When You Walk In The Room (1963) one day we might agree on which version of a track is best :lol: mind you...i think we agree on dustys 'goin back' being superior to the byrds original
