Henry Ayrton plays the first British hits by The Miracles, Gene Pitney, and Bill Haley.

Henry Ayrton gets his binoculars out to spot a nest full of "twitching" hits by the likes of Marvin Rainwater and Lou Johnson. Plus memories of June 1961's hit parade.

Chart Starts: debut British hits by the likes of Gene Pitney, Bill Haley, and The Miracles – and they’re not always the records you'd expect.

Forgetting: Jackie DeShannon, The Kalin Twins, and Bobby Rydell will be some of the people battling with amnesia.

Bluebirds: as spotted by expert "twitchers" such as Marvin Rainwater and Lou Johnson.
  
Freddy Cannon, The Shirelles, Dee Clark and others will be found among a selection of New Record Releases of June 1961.
