From Memphis To Merseyside

Colours (part one)

Ep. 188

This week, on From Memphis To Merseyside, Tony Stuart and Aaron Badgley begin the first of a two part look at the colours of rock. These are all songs with a colour in the title. There are a few surprises. Part one starts in the 1950s and ends in the mid 1960s. Part two picks up in the mid sixties and goes into the 1970s.
