'The
sixties were a fun time when everything came together,
and London was fab - it really was then, ... it
was really jumping. And there were The Beatles
and the pirate radio stations and all that, and
a general loosening up. Of course the war had
gone by then and rationing had finished so people
started throwing their legs in the air and having
a good time. It was a good place to be, around
London, in the sixties.'
Kenny Everett,
DJ and producer of the Beatles Christmas records
