This is where I am going to post singes, old and newish. Parts of pop history, classics and rubbish, but all are part of pop, and every part of pop contributes to its evolution.

Some  material, younger members will never heard of, plenty is brilliant.

I will update daily. You can add if you wish, or if you dont like, then just pass me by, I will find it useful for myself.

I may cut and paste info with a link. Come in or stay away I dont mind. Cheers.   Steve.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4WdstNXv9I

The Four Pennies were an English, 1960s pop group, most notable for their 1964 UK chart topping song, "Juliet". The group's name came after a meeting above the Blackburn music shop owned by Mary Reidy, the shop being situated on 'Penny Street' where it is still located today as "Reidy's Home of Music".^[1] The name was chosen as a more commercial alternative to 'The Lionel Morton Four'. The shop is still owned by the Reidy family.

We shall never forget
We shall keep this day,
We shall keep the events and the tears
In our minds, our memory and our hearts
and take them with us as we carry on.

Herman's Hermits is an English beat or pop band, formed in Manchester in 1963 as Herman & The Hermits.

KRAFTWERK - THE MODEL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgS252XT_Ts

Kraftwerk (German pronunciation: ['k?aftv??k]) is an electronic music band from Düsseldorf, Germany. The signature Kraftwerk sound combines driving, repetitive rhythms with catchy melodies, mainly following a Western classical style of harmony, with a minimalistic and strictly electronic instrumentation. The group's simplified lyrics are at times sung through a vocoder or generated by computer-speech software. Kraftwerk were one of the first groups to popularize electronic music. In the 1970s and early 1980s, Kraftwerk's distinctive sound was revolutionary, and has had a lasting effect across many genres of modern music.^{[1][2][3][4][5]}

The group was formed by Ralf Hütter and Florian Schneider in 1970, and was fronted by them until Schneider's departure in 2008.
