  1. I love your website and especially the compilations you do…but I wish you had started at 1969 and worked backwards towards the very early 60’s. I love 60’s music..but mostly from 1965 onwards, regards, Jay

    1. Hi Jay,
      I have never seen a month by month 1961 Compilation so thought it woulds be fun.
      Glad you are enjoying these ones already posted.
      I do plan to do other years after the 1961 series is finished.

      Cheers
