About this listen
For episode 2, we travel back for the Christmas number ones of the 1960s.
It was the decade of the Beatles’ takeover of the festive charts, plus a couple of oddities and rock and roll favourites.
It proved to be the decade that showed that the festive chart was something the biggest artists around battled out for, with big hits for Cliff Richard, Elvis Presley and Tom Jones.
Full Christmas number ones (look away if you don’t want ‘spoilers’!):
- 1960: Cliff Richard & The Shadows – ‘I Love You’
- 1961: Danny Williams – ‘Moon River’
- 1962: Elvis Presley – ‘Return to Sender’
- 1963: The Beatles – ‘I Want to Hold Your Hand’
- 1964: The Beatles – ‘I Feel Fine’
- 1965: The Beatles – ‘Day Tripper/We Can Work It Out’
- 1966: Tom Jones – ‘The Green Green Grass of Home’
- 1967: The Beatles – ‘Hello Goodbye’
- 1968: The Scaffold – ‘Lily the Pink’
- 1969: Rolf Harris – ‘Two Little Boys’
