The leafy streets, red buses and people of Muswell Hill, London, in the late 1950s to early 1960s.

The Black Knights
“I Gotta Woman”/“Angel of Love”
(UK, 8th Jan 1965)
A: https://t.co/QDYvzglnRG
B: https://t.co/6R7PeLtoGX

While the A-side to their only 45 is a Cavern-filling rocker, side B is the more interesting cut. A thread runs from it to the La’s and beyond. #Liverpool

Tony Rivers & the Castaways
“She”/“‘Til We Get Home”
(UK, 8th Jan 1965)
A: https://t.co/1r2UQd8LTU
B: https://t.co/SS75LxVqkv

With this #ManfredMann cover, it feels like Rivers invents power pop — the Nick Lowe/Elvis Costello version of it. The flip is Beach Boys on scooters.

Four Tops
“Ask the Lonely”/“Where Did You Go”
(US #23/CAN #16, 5th Jan 1965)

Mid-tempo gold from #LeviStubbs & co. The third in a trilogy of A-sides themed around lost love. #Motown

The Scorpions [UK]
“Ann-Louise”

Glorious, five-star, mid-60s beat from this Manchester act adopted by the Netherlands. While touring there in ‘64 they won a talent contest leading to a deal with #CNR. Released in 4 different sleeves.

Imaginative colouring of the mid-60s #Beatles by my 7-year-old daughter. I particularly like Ringo’s rainbow drums!

[Neil 1RecordEveryday @1RecordEveryday]

I love these little National Trust guide books for the childhood homes of John Lennon & Paul McCartney.
