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
