Summer will soon be over.

As we approach the last weeks of our summertime, I thought that it would be nice to feature some classic "summery" pop-music in the program for Friday 15th. February.

Drawn mostly from those fab days of the 1960s when popular music with a surfing or beach theme ruled the airwaves, you will be able to hear Australian and American groups as they belt out those sand and salt-spray covered hits from the Top Forty charts between 1960 and 1965.

Groups such as the Beach Boys, the Sunrays, the Rivieras, the Trashmen, the Surfaris, the Delltones, Mungo Jerry and solo artists including Little Pattie, Paul Anka, Connie Francis and others will fill your ears with the upbeat sounds that had us stompin' left, right and centre!

So join me as we wind down the summer of 2012/2013 with a medley of some of the best popular music of our youth.

The Comedy Spot that follows the 3:00 PM news & weather will today feature another classic Hancock's Half-hour, this one entitled "The Student Prince", and featuring Tony Hancock, Sid James, Bill Kerr, Kenneth Williams and a new face (voice!) in Andree Melly (who preceeded Hattie Jacques).
