Pastor Cortt Chavis preaches, "Don't Hang Up Your Harps."
No doubt it has been tough being a Spurs fan recently. And with media reports of disharmony in the dressing room and Harry Kane wanting to leave it is hard to be positive about things. Especially after a 3-1 defeat at home to Manchester United that makes hopes of Champions League qualification even slimmer. But whilst there were some negative lapses today during the pod, we did try and find a glimmer of hope. So please don't hang up and bear with us. COYS
In this episode, I discuss the Horror Film Don't Hang Up which puts two friends in a tough game of choices with deadly consequences. I touch on being a bro, making decisions, how I would fight the Villian and more!

Take the Call, Don't Hang-up on God is kind of a personal experience of when the Lord called me to do something, my advise is just take the call and do what it is He ask you to do. This way you avoid being eaten by a big fish or being killed by some crazy king or queen. or in my case my hopes and dreams become sifting sand in my hand and it just falls to the ground of failure. You see not everything I've done was a failure thank God; just the main stuff I wanted to accomplish in life. Well I call it main stuff to me, for it was stuff that mostly seem to matter to me. I know God's calls now and you will to when you are called. You see he calls all of us in different ways because we are all different so he meet us where he knows he can get our attention. I'll give you one example if I am not interested in wealth then he knows he can trust me with wealth. Therefore he could trust me as treasurer of the U.S. government; and if I was a thief that would be the last place to put me. He would not seek to meet me there. But if you are a potential rock star and your heart is set to be a famous music star at least that is where he got my attention, because my passion was there, in essence he find us where we think we want to be most. I feel because there is where we will spend most of our time and efforts and we are passionate about it. I'm not saying I have some formula to how God works but in his own way he knows how to reach you for his call. Just keep an ear, eye, in other words all of your senses available awaiting his call. God bless you, thank you for listen to our podcast.

Some people are not going to love this message but it needs to be heard. I've been around a lot of different kinds of Christians in my life, that seem to fall in one of two different catagories. Haze and clarity. The haze catagory comes from living in a life of constant compromise. Some because it's all around them and they just have to deal with it, and others because they choose to live in mixture, and don't intend to change. The difference between those two is transparency. The one that hurts and aches for clarity emits it. The other compartmentalizes their life of mixture and because of that is never transparent. You always know something else is going on and there just seems to be a haze, about them. Things that are simply unclear. Some where in the ambience of their world is a culture of accepted compromise. The other camp is clarity. Nothing is really that hard to connect with, and there is far less instances of confusion about them. Being on the same page is easy because they walk in the simplicity of God's word. If something is off track in their private life they are transparent about it, love, joy, peace and their trust in God disperses the haze even if it's their unfortunate situation that they live where mixture rules the religious roost, where they come from. I've seen this demonstrated over and over again in a time where the whirl winds of 2020 have left an invisible haze everywhere we go, but then joining with those of the Camp of Clarity, things become so very clear. Because clarity of heart is what brought them together. A place of no compromise. These understand this message, no matter what generation they belong to, young, old, gender, or race. There are certain fundamentals of the Christian walk we understand with great clarity in these modern times. We have a rod in this generation that seperate the sheep from the goats. It makes it very easy to know where to stand in troubled times like this- the only thing that could possibly make what I talk about in this podcast unclear is deception or a heart of rebellion. If after listening to this podcast it's still not made clear to you, than mixture is not just where you live. But where you choose to stay. Coming into a place of clarity requires heart felt repentance. That's it, that's all. No matter how much we have compromised and made a lie out of our lives, God is a merciful God who loves us, and wants us to return to Him.

This episode is a real departure for us! After receiving an incredible email from Tanya Smith and her sister Lindy, both from Melbourne, Australia, Sean and Paul were bowled over by the fresh perspectives and alternative take on how 10cc's output might be viewed by women. We're blokes, and we simply hadn't realised that as blokes, we've been thinking and listening through a very different filter! We found this discussion absolutely fascinating, and we really hope you do too. Like us, Lindy and Tanya are big fans of 1970s 10cc and the first three Godley and Creme albums. The podcast helped to shed some light on the later material, and also raised some questions for them. For example, why aren't we hearing the same 'pop genius' in Donna and the other 1950s pastiches? Surely the more 1960s-influenced Hotlegs material, as sung by Kevin, is much more worthwhile? Why are there so few female musicians and collaborators? And many more questions besides. Much of this podcast aims to analyse 10cc and Godley and Creme through a finely-focused lens of how Eric, Graham, Lol and Kevin have portrayed women, both lyrically and through album artwork. Some of the recurring female archetypes are really interesting, so we won't spoil the surprise. There's no accusation of sexism here; the band were in many ways simply the product of their culture at the time. Suffice to say that we discuss a huge range of hits and much lesser-known songs, including Donna and Rubber Bullets, I'm Not in Love, Blackmail, Iceberg, Don't Hang Up, Modern Man Blues, Strange Lover, Working Girls, Something Special, Green-eyed Monster, Sandwiches of You, Wedding Bells, Cats Eyes, Cry, Golden Rings and plenty more. Oh, and Consequences of course! Lindy's takedown of the Neanderthal Man promo film is worth its weight in gold! It was also great to hear an Australian perspective on this great band's rise and fall. And what's all this about Hubcap Jenny? Well, you'll just have to wait and see. Hear. I'm sure you'll find this as interesting and refreshing as we did. Apologies and thanks to Karen Piercey too, having 'missed the boat' due to Sean sending his invite to the wrong email address!
Lauv is a beautiful singer, but we really wanted to put his vocal abilities to the test, by getting him to play Sound Charades - a game which will see him act out everyday chores (such as brushing your teeth or chopping up dinner) using only your voice. You quite literally need to hear it to believe it. Olly Murs also joined Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp to announce the return of Soccer Aid and, fittingly, play a penalty shootout game against Ro... And lose at it. Miserably. While he CAN sing, he certainly doesn't know what letter of the alphabet 'vinyl' begins with. If you're stressed out easily, brace yourself for this week's Don't Hang Up!, as Sonny Jay acts out a dodgy builder who accidentally replaces (and totally destroys) one of our listener's doors. He really made a (gl)ass of himself this week. Capital Breakfast have an all new podcast. Every Friday Roman Kemp and Sonny Jay will bring you lots of guests, pranks and waffle. Get in touch with us @CapitalOfficial on Snapchat, Instagram & Twitter.
This week, Love Island's hunky voiceover Iain Stirling talks all things Love Island, including his favourite contestant and what it's like working with his girlfriend Laura Whitmore. Roman tests his Mum on phrases like 'stan' after she was confused what a meme was and we find out some of the stupid things that you and your other half have argued over. Plus, those dodgy builders are back - a.k.a. Roman and Sonny - causing more mayhem in the latest Don't Hang Up. Listen to Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp weekdays from 6AM.

With Roman Kemp deep in the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, Rob Howard, Vick Hope and Sonny Jay wanted to support him by taking on their own Bush Tucker Trials. (They agreed to it before they really thought it through, to be honest.) Vick was faced with a shocking cocktail, which consisted of worms, fish juice and locusts... Which isn't your usual Friday night bev, but it'll do. She also had to take on Halsey in a fierce game of Out Quick Vick, after losing to the likes of Megan Barton-Hansen. Before he entered the Australian jungle, Roman Kemp managed to leave us a special Don't Hang Up!, which you need to hear to believe. Listen to Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp weekdays from 6AM.

An evening of drunken prank calls quickly turns into a nightmare for a pair of teenagers when a mysterious stranger plays them at their own game, with deadly consequences.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas - especially after Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp announced who's going to be performing at Capital's Jingle Bell Ball this year. Baller Lauv joined the guys to chat about his wild outfits he was going to wear on stage to thousands of fans. We also tested the country with their favourite biscuits, and *tried* to persuade Roman to change his choice. Don't Hang Up! made a return as Ro and Sonny Jay donned their helmets and overalls, and pranked one unsuspecting listener into believing their property had been crushed by a couple of incompetent builders.

American #teenage #pranksters as seen by British film makers. Don’t hang up, and don’t dial 999 as this story of a prank’s consequences gets the revenge movie treatment. We are joined by another special #guest David Quiroga Gomez (@David.Quirogago) who when not recapping movies also teaches #Zumba. So tune in to see what our hang ups about this movie are! #Donthangup
When Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp catch up with the biggest stars, and hottest A-listers, they like to ask all of the hard-hitting, journalistic queries... Which is why - when Halsey spoke to us about her brand new song, 'Graveyard' - we asked her about her underwear. Naturally. (Whatever you do, don't Google 'whale tails' after this...) This week's Don't Hang Up! saw Vick Hope ring a salon asking for some help about how to wax her eyebrows, but she didn't want a professional to do it; she wanted the assistance of Roman. (DISCLAIMER: None of Vick's facial hairs were damaged in the making of this podcast.) The gang also spoke about the ideal office etiquette, and Vick's absolute belter on Soccer AM. Just don't show this bit to Roman; he'll pass out with jealousy.

Long time, no see! It's been two weeks since we last heard from Roman Kemp, Vick Hope and Sonny Jay, so get up to date with what they guys got up to on their holiday. In the past, we've taken Anne-Marie on to our radio show and she's said some pretty risqué stuff that she definitely shouldn't have said. Luckily for her - and, more importantly, us - we now have a podcast, where she can say whatever she likes, including whatever she uttered during a wild whisper challenge, which she played when chatting about her new tune, 'f*ck, i'm lonely'. We also pranked one huge football fan with a footie-themed Don't Hang Up!, which saw Roman don the disguise of a health inspector, probing one football punter after he was apparently cheering too loudly.

Before you start this podcast, grab a box of tissues, because you *will* cry hysterically when Tom Walker performs a personalised rendition of 'Just You and I' to help Kane propose to his girlfriend (and Tom Walker superfan), Danielle. And just to let you know, Vick Hope's still crying at this, even though we recorded it days ago. Speaking of marriage, Sonny Jay got his cheeky on, too, when he pranked a bride-to-be on this week's Don't Hang Up! We also caught up with stars of Disney's The Lion King, Seth Rogen and Billy Eichner, as they spilled all of the details on the live-action adaptation of the film, and spent the entire time fangirling over being on a hit song with Beyoncé. But why wouldn't you fangirl? Beyoncé. 'Nuff said.

Warning: Keith Lemon and Paddy McGuinness' chat does get a bit naughty so best to give it a listen before you let your kids hear it. In one of his most ambitious Don't Hang Up calls to date, Roman Kemp phoned up Britain's biggest hardman - actual Danny Dyer - pretending to be from the local council. It's safe to say, Danny wasn't too impressed with being told he was going to have to cough up a load of cash for a skip on his driveway! This week, Ro, Vick and Sonny also catch up with the guy behind one of 2019's biggest hits - 'Old Town Road' superstar Lil Nas X - and Bebe Rexha takes on Out Quick Vick, a.k.a the toughest game around on the radio. Plus, Keith Lemon and Paddy McGuinness get very honest chatting about the weirdest thing they've ever cried about (this is the naughty part of the podcast).

When you've got Brian Cox, one of the smartest people on the planet grace you with his presence, there's not doubt you'll have to be ready with some deep questions... or just ask him his opinion on Love Island of course.

If you're anything like us, your whole life has revolved around Love Island. Which is why we had to get the recently evicted Joe Garratt to pop by and spill all the tea on the show. He also compared Roman Kemp, Vick Hope and Sonny Jay to sandwiches. Don't listen if you're hungry. We also caught up with superstars, David Guetta and RAYE. You'd have thought they'd have had loads of stories about celebrities, but it turns out they just humiliate themselves in front of fellow DJ, Calvin Harris, by tackling his security and waving pasta in front of his face. You need to hear it to believe it. And we'd like to get serious for the last part of this podcast. We may have just got someone fired in this week's Don't Hang Up! after we pranked a listener's boss. If you're the now jobless listener, you can come work for us. Deal?

Do you like listening to the world's biggest girl band? Then you've come to the right place, as Little Mix swung by to chat to Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp about their brand new bop, 'Bounce Back'. But we couldn't let Jesy Nelson go away empty-handed on her birthday, could we? We threw her a surprise party, and - warning - you may here a lot of squealing and sobbing. It's not for the faint-hearted. Roman, Vick Hope and Sonny Jay also did the nation a solid, and sorted British foods into tiers. If you're prone to getting angry easily, you may want to sit down and breathe, as some of their choices are rogue. Don't even get me started on their love for cottage pie. Ew. Wes Nelson popped by to spill literally *EVERY* single drop of tea on Love Island, and we've never witnessed a more irate Don't Hang Up! in our lives.

Roman Kemp, Vick Hope and Sonny Jay had a chinwag with Billie Eilish while she was on FaceTime, and couldn't help but chat about her love for the Spice Girls... And how she didn't actually realise they were real. And - in other hard-hitting journalism - the guys also spoke about washing their legs, and the proper way to do it. You've been warned. On top of all that, they got shouted at by a man who loved... Semolina. Seriously.

Don't you hate it when your mom keeps relapsing on painkillers and starts dating vampires? This week, we jump into the well of dysfunction that is "Family Blood," which features all the fun of divorce and addiction, but also throws in a vampire stepdad. Mark takes a look at "Don't Hang Up" and gives way too much feedback on his feelings about the sign language in "A Quiet Place," and we discuss the 73 minute anti-masterpiece "Wolves at the Door," which glamorizes the actual murders of actual people. How cool! Finally, we take aim at "As Above So Below," which posits the question: What happens if you visit Paris, and the catacombs are actually open to visitors? (Unlike the time we went.

A detailed look at black, African-American, culture during the "Sixties". (1960-1969) Overview "The Sixties": the counterculture and revolution in social norms about clothing, music, drugs, dress, sexuality, formalities, and schooling – or - irresponsible excess, flamboyance, and decay of social order. Also labeled the Swinging Sixties because of the fall or relaxation of social taboos especially relating to racism and sexism that occurred during this time. Also described as a classical Jungian nightmare cycle, where a rigid culture, unable to contain the demands for greater individual freedom, broke free of the social constraints of the previous age through extreme deviation from the norm. The confrontation between the US and the Soviet Union dominated geopolitics during the '60s, with the struggle expanding into developing nations in Latin America, Africa, and Asia characterized by proxy wars, funding of insurgencies, and puppet governments. In response to civil disobedience campaigns from groups like the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), U.S. President John F. Kennedy, pushed for social reforms. Kennedy's assassination in 1963 was a shock. Liberal reforms were finally passed under Lyndon B. Johnson including civil rights for African Americans· and healthcare for the elderly and the poor. Despite his large-scale Great Society programs, Johnson was increasingly reviled. The heavy-handed American role in the Vietnam War outraged student protestors around the globe. The assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., anti-Vietnam War movement, and the police response towards protesters of the 1968 Democratic National Convention, defined a politics of violence in the United States. The 1960s were marked by several notable assassinations: 12 June 1963 – Medgar Evers, an NAACP field secretary. Assassinated by Byron de la Beckwith, a member of the Ku Klux Klan in Jackson, Mississippi. 22 November 1963 – John F. Kennedy, President of the United States. Assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald while riding in a motorcade through Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas. 21 February 1965 – Malcolm X. Assassinated by members of the Nation of Islam in New York City. There is a dispute about which members killed Malcolm X. 4 April 1968 – Martin Luther King, Jr., civil rights leader. Assassinated by James Earl Ray in Memphis, Tennessee. 5 June 1968 – Robert F. Kennedy, United States Senator. Assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan in Los Angeles, after taking California in the presidential national primaries. Social and political movements (counterculture) Flower Power/Hippies In the second half of the decade, young people began to revolt against the conservative norms of the time. The youth involved in the popular social aspects of the movement became known as hippies. These groups created a movement toward liberation in society, including the sexual revolution, questioning authority and government, and demanding more freedoms and rights for women and minorities. The movement was also marked by the first widespread, socially accepted drug use (including LSD and marijuana) and psychedelic music. Anti-war movement The war in Vietnam would eventually lead to a commitment of over half a million American troops, resulting in over 58,500 American deaths and producing a large-scale antiwar movement in the United States. Students became a powerful and disruptive force and university campuses sparked a national debate over the war. The antiwar movement was heavily influenced by the American Communist Party, but by the mid-1960s it outgrew this and became a broad-based mass movement centered in universities and churches: one kind of protest was called a "sit-in". Civil rights movement Beginning in the mid-1950s and continuing into the late 1960s, African-Americans in the United States aimed at outlawing racial discrimination against black Americans and voting rights to them. The emergence of the Black Power movement, which lasted roughly from 1966 to 1975, enlarged the aims of the civil rights movement to include racial dignity, economic and political self-sufficiency, and anti-imperialism. The movement was characterized by major campaigns of civil resistance. Forms of protest and/or civil disobedience included boycotts such as the successful Montgomery Bus Boycott (1955–1956) in Alabama; "sit-ins" such as the influential Greensboro sit-ins (1960) in North Carolina; marches, such as the Selma to Montgomery marches (1965) in Alabama.; and a wide range of other nonviolent activities. Noted legislative achievements during this phase of the civil rights movement were passage of Civil Rights Act of 1964, that banned discrimination based on "race, color, religion, or national origin" in employment practices and public accommodations; the Voting Rights Act of 1965, that restored and protected voting rights; the Immigration and Nationality Services Act of 1965, that dramatically opened entry to the U.S. to immigrants other than traditional European groups; and the Fair Housing Act of 1968, that banned discrimination in the sale or rental of housing. Hispanic and Chicano movement Another large ethnic minority group, the Mexican-Americans, are among other Hispanics in the U.S. who fought to end racial discrimination and socioeconomic disparity. In the 1960s and the following 1970s, Hispanic-American culture was on the rebound like ethnic music, foods, culture and identity both became popular and assimilated into the American mainstream. Spanish-language television networks, radio stations and newspapers increased in presence across the country. Second-wave feminism A second wave of feminism in the United States and around the world gained momentum in the early 1960s. While the first wave of the early 20th century was centered on gaining suffrage and overturning de jure inequalities, the second wave was focused on changing cultural and social norms and de facto inequalities associated with women. At the time, a woman's place was generally seen as being in the home, and they were excluded from many jobs and professions. Feminists took to the streets, marching and protesting, writing books and debating to change social and political views that limited women. In 1963, with Betty Friedan's revolutionary book, The Feminine Mystique, the role of women in society, and in public and private life was questioned. By 1966, the movement was beginning to grow and power as women's group spread across the country and Friedan, along with other feminists, founded the National Organization for Women. In 1968, "Women's Liberation" became a household term. Gay rights movement The United States, in the middle of a social revolution, led the world in LGBT rights in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Inspired by the civil-rights movement and the women's movement, early gay-rights pioneers had begun, by the 1960s, to build a movement. These groups were rather conservative in their practices, emphasizing that gay men and women are no different from those who are straight and deserve full equality. This philosophy would be dominant again after AIDS, but by the very end of the 1960s, the movement's goals would change and become more radical, demanding a right to be different, and encouraging gay pride. Crime The 1960s was also associated with a large increase in crime and urban unrest of all types. Between 1960 and 1969 reported incidences of violent crime per 100,000 people in the United States nearly doubled and have yet to return to the levels of the early 1960s. Large riots broke out in many cities like Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, New York City, Newark, New Jersey, Oakland, California and Washington, D.C. By the end of the decade, politicians like George Wallace and Richard Nixon campaigned on restoring law and order to a nation troubled with the new unrest. Economics The decade began with a recession and at that time unemployment was considered high at around 7%. John F. Kennedy promised to "get America moving again." To do this, he instituted a 7% tax credit for businesses that invest in new plants and equipment. By the end of the decade, median family income had risen from $8,540 in 1963 to $10,770 by 1969. Minimum wage was $1.30 per hour / ~$2,700 per year (~$18,700 in 2018) Popular culture The counterculture movement dominated the second half of the 1960s, its most famous moments being the Summer of Love in San Francisco in 1967, and the Woodstock Festival in upstate New York in 1969. Psychedelic drugs, especially LSD, were widely used medicinally, spiritually and recreationally throughout the late 1960s, and were popularized by Timothy Leary with his slogan "Turn on, tune in, drop out". Psychedelic influenced the music, artwork and films of the decade, and several prominent musicians died of drug overdoses. There was a growing interest in Eastern religions and philosophy, and many attempts were made to found communes, which varied from supporting free love to religious puritanism. Music British Invasion: The Beatles arrive at John F. Kennedy International Airport, 7 February 1964 "The 60's were a leap in human consciousness. Mahatma Gandhi, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Che Guevara, Mother Teresa, they led a revolution of conscience. The Beatles, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix created revolution and evolution themes. The music was like Dalí, with many colors and revolutionary ways. The youth of today must go there to find themselves." – Carlos Santana. As the 1960s began, the major rock-and-roll stars of the '50s such as Chuck Berry and Little Richard had dropped off the charts and popular music in the US came to be dominated by Motown girl groups and novelty pop songs. Another important change in music during the early 1960s was the American folk music revival which introduced Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, The Kingston Trio, Harry Belafonte, Bob Dylan, Odetta, and many other Singer-songwriters to the public. Girl groups and female singers, such as the Shirelles, Betty Everett, Little Eva, the Dixie Cups, the Ronettes, and the Supremes dominated the charts in the early 1960s. This style consisted typically of light pop themes about teenage romance, backed by vocal harmonies and a strong rhythm. Most girl groups were African-American, but white girl groups and singers, such as Lesley Gore, the Angels, and the Shangri-Las emerged by 1963. Around the same time, record producer Phil Spector began producing girl groups and created a new kind of pop music production that came to be known as the Wall of Sound. This style emphasized higher budgets and more elaborate arrangements, and more melodramatic musical themes in place of a simple, light-hearted pop sound. Spector's innovations became integral to the growing sophistication of popular music from 1965 onward. Also during the early '60s, the “car song” emerged as a rock subgenre and coupled with the surf rock subgenre. Such notable songs include "Little Deuce Coupe," "409," and "Shut Down," all by the Beach Boys; Jan and Dean's "Little Old Lady from Pasadena" and "Drag City," among many others. While rock 'n' roll had 'disappeared' from the US charts in the early '60s, it never died out in Europe and Britain was a hotbed of rock-and-roll activity during this time. In late 1963, the Beatles embarked on their first US tour. A few months later, rock-and-roll founding father Chuck Berry emerged from a 2-1/2-year prison stint and resumed recording and touring. The stage was set for the spectacular revival of rock music. In the UK, the Beatles played raucous rock 'n' roll – as well as doo wop, girl-group songs, show tunes. Beatlemania abruptly exploded after the group's appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964. As the counterculture movement developed, artists began making new kinds of music influenced by the use of psychedelic drugs. Guitarist Jimi Hendrix emerged onto the scene in 1967 with a radically new approach to electric guitar that replaced Chuck Berry, previously seen as the gold standard of rock guitar. Rock artists began to take on serious themes and social commentary/protest instead of simplistic pop themes. A major development in popular music during the mid-1960s was the movement away from singles and towards albums. Blues also continued to develop strongly during the '60s, but after 1965, it increasingly shifted to the young white rock audience and away from its traditional black audience, which moved on to other styles such as soul and funk. Jazz music during the first half of the '60s was largely a continuation of '50s styles, retaining its core audience of young, urban, college-educated whites. By 1967, the death of several important jazz figures such as John Coltrane and Nat King Cole precipitated a decline in the genre. The takeover of rock in the late '60s largely spelled the end of jazz as a mainstream form of music, after it had dominated much of the first half of the 20th century. Significant events in music in the 1960s: Sam Cooke was shot and killed at a motel in Los Angeles, California [11 December 1964] at age 33 under suspicious circumstances. Motown Record Corporation was founded in 1960. Its first Top Ten hit was "Shop Around" by the Miracles in 1960. "Shop Around" peaked at number-two on the Billboard Hot 100 and was Motown's first million-selling record. The Marvelettes scored Motown Record Corporation's first US No. 1 pop hit, "Please Mr. Postman" in 1961. Motown would score 110 Billboard Top-Ten hits during its run. The Supremes scored twelve number-one hit singles between 1964 and 1969, beginning with "Where Did Our Love Go". John Coltrane released A Love Supreme in late 1964, considered among the most acclaimed jazz albums of the era. In 1966, The Supremes A' Go-Go was the first album by a female group to reach the top position of the Billboard magazine pop albums chart in the United States. The Jimi Hendrix Experience released two successful albums during 1967, Are You Experienced and Axis: Bold as Love, that innovate both guitar, trio and recording techniques. R & B legend Otis Redding has his first No. 1 hit with the legendary Sitting on the Dock of the Bay. He also played at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967 just before he died in a plane crash. The Bee Gees released their international debut album Bee Gees 1st in July 1967 which included the pop standard "To Love Somebody". 1968: after The Yardbirds fold, Led Zeppelin was formed by Jimmy Page and manager Peter Grant, with Robert Plant, John Bonham and John Paul Jones; and, released their debut album Led Zeppelin. Big Brother and the Holding Company, with Janis Joplin as lead singer, became an overnight sensation after their performance at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967 and released their second album Cheap Thrills in 1968. Gram Parsons with The Byrds released the extremely influential LP Sweetheart of the Rodeo in late 1968, forming the basis for country rock. The Jimi Hendrix Experience released the highly influential double LP Electric Ladyland in 1968 that furthered the guitar and studio innovations of his previous two albums. Woodstock Festival, 1969 Sly & the Family Stone revolutionized black music with their massive 1968 hit single "Dance to the Music" and by 1969 became international sensations with the release of their hit record Stand!. The band cemented their position as a vital counterculture band when they performed at the Woodstock Festival.

The Flintstones was a favored show, receiving 40 million views an episode with an average of 3 views a day. Some programming such as The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour became controversial by challenging the foundations of America's corporate and governmental controls; making fun of world leaders, and questioning U.S. involvement in and escalation of the Vietnam War. Fashion Significant fashion trends of the 1960s include: The Beatles exerted an enormous influence on young men's fashions and hairstyles in the 1960s which included most notably the mop-top haircut, the Beatle boots and the Nehru jacket. The hippie movement late in the decade also had a strong influence on clothing styles, including bell-bottom jeans, tie-dye and batik fabrics, as well as paisley prints. The bikini came into fashion in 1963 after being featured in the film Beach Party. Mary Quant invented the miniskirt, which became one of the most popular fashion rages in the late 1960s among young women and teenage girls. Its popularity continued throughout the first half of the 1970s and then disappeared temporarily from mainstream fashion before making a comeback in the mid-1980s. Men's mainstream hairstyles ranged from the pompadour, the crew cut, the flattop hairstyle, the tapered hairstyle, and short, parted hair in the early part of the decade, to longer parted hairstyles with sideburns towards the latter half of the decade. Women's mainstream hairstyles ranged from beehive hairdos, the bird's nest hairstyle, and the chignon hairstyle in the early part of the decade, to very short styles popularized by Twiggy and Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby towards the latter half of the decade. African-American hairstyles for men and women included the afro.

A detailed look at black, African-American, culture during the "Sixties". (1960-1969) (Bonus Artists: hidingtobefound & Luck Pacheco) Overview "The Sixties": the counterculture and revolution in social norms about clothing, music, drugs, dress, sexuality, formalities, and schooling – or - irresponsible excess, flamboyance, and decay of social order. Also labeled the Swinging Sixties because of the fall or relaxation of social taboos especially relating to racism and sexism that occurred during this time. Also described as a classical Jungian nightmare cycle, where a rigid culture, unable to contain the demands for greater individual freedom, broke free of the social constraints of the previous age through extreme deviation from the norm. The confrontation between the US and the Soviet Union dominated geopolitics during the '60s, with the struggle expanding into developing nations in Latin America, Africa, and Asia characterized by proxy wars, funding of insurgencies, and puppet governments. In response to civil disobedience campaigns from groups like the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), U.S. President John F. Kennedy, pushed for social reforms. Kennedy's assassination in 1963 was a shock. Liberal reforms were finally passed under Lyndon B. Johnson including civil rights for African Americans· and healthcare for the elderly and the poor. Despite his large-scale Great Society programs, Johnson was increasingly reviled. The heavy-handed American role in the Vietnam War outraged student protestors around the globe. The assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., anti-Vietnam War movement, and the police response towards protesters of the 1968 Democratic National Convention, defined a politics of violence in the United States. The 1960s were marked by several notable assassinations: 12 June 1963 – Medgar Evers, an NAACP field secretary. Assassinated by Byron de la Beckwith, a member of the Ku Klux Klan in Jackson, Mississippi. 22 November 1963 – John F. Kennedy, President of the United States. Assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald while riding in a motorcade through Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas. 21 February 1965 – Malcolm X. Assassinated by members of the Nation of Islam in New York City. There is a dispute about which members killed Malcolm X. 4 April 1968 – Martin Luther King, Jr., civil rights leader. Assassinated by James Earl Ray in Memphis, Tennessee. 5 June 1968 – Robert F. Kennedy, United States Senator. Assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan in Los Angeles, after taking California in the presidential national primaries. Social and political movements (counterculture) Flower Power/Hippies In the second half of the decade, young people began to revolt against the conservative norms of the time. The youth involved in the popular social aspects of the movement became known as hippies. These groups created a movement toward liberation in society, including the sexual revolution, questioning authority and government, and demanding more freedoms and rights for women and minorities. The movement was also marked by the first widespread, socially accepted drug use (including LSD and marijuana) and psychedelic music. Anti-war movement The war in Vietnam would eventually lead to a commitment of over half a million American troops, resulting in over 58,500 American deaths and producing a large-scale antiwar movement in the United States. Students became a powerful and disruptive force and university campuses sparked a national debate over the war. The antiwar movement was heavily influenced by the American Communist Party, but by the mid-1960s it outgrew this and became a broad-based mass movement centered in universities and churches: one kind of protest was called a "sit-in". Civil rights movement Beginning in the mid-1950s and continuing into the late 1960s, African-Americans in the United States aimed at outlawing racial discrimination against black Americans and voting rights to them. The emergence of the Black Power movement, which lasted roughly from 1966 to 1975, enlarged the aims of the civil rights movement to include racial dignity, economic and political self-sufficiency, and anti-imperialism. The movement was characterized by major campaigns of civil resistance. Forms of protest and/or civil disobedience included boycotts such as the successful Montgomery Bus Boycott (1955–1956) in Alabama; "sit-ins" such as the influential Greensboro sit-ins (1960) in North Carolina; marches, such as the Selma to Montgomery marches (1965) in Alabama.; and a wide range of other nonviolent activities. Noted legislative achievements during this phase of the civil rights movement were passage of Civil Rights Act of 1964, that banned discrimination based on "race, color, religion, or national origin" in employment practices and public accommodations; the Voting Rights Act of 1965, that restored and protected voting rights; the Immigration and Nationality Services Act of 1965, that dramatically opened entry to the U.S. to immigrants other than traditional European groups; and the Fair Housing Act of 1968, that banned discrimination in the sale or rental of housing. Hispanic and Chicano movement Another large ethnic minority group, the Mexican-Americans, are among other Hispanics in the U.S. who fought to end racial discrimination and socioeconomic disparity. In the 1960s and the following 1970s, Hispanic-American culture was on the rebound like ethnic music, foods, culture and identity both became popular and assimilated into the American mainstream. Spanish-language television networks, radio stations and newspapers increased in presence across the country. Second-wave feminism A second wave of feminism in the United States and around the world gained momentum in the early 1960s. While the first wave of the early 20th century was centered on gaining suffrage and overturning de jure inequalities, the second wave was focused on changing cultural and social norms and de facto inequalities associated with women. At the time, a woman's place was generally seen as being in the home, and they were excluded from many jobs and professions. Feminists took to the streets, marching and protesting, writing books and debating to change social and political views that limited women. In 1963, with Betty Friedan's revolutionary book, The Feminine Mystique, the role of women in society, and in public and private life was questioned. By 1966, the movement was beginning to grow and power as women's group spread across the country and Friedan, along with other feminists, founded the National Organization for Women. In 1968, "Women's Liberation" became a household term. Gay rights movement The United States, in the middle of a social revolution, led the world in LGBT rights in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Inspired by the civil-rights movement and the women's movement, early gay-rights pioneers had begun, by the 1960s, to build a movement. These groups were rather conservative in their practices, emphasizing that gay men and women are no different from those who are straight and deserve full equality. This philosophy would be dominant again after AIDS, but by the very end of the 1960s, the movement's goals would change and become more radical, demanding a right to be different, and encouraging gay pride. Crime The 1960s was also associated with a large increase in crime and urban unrest of all types. Between 1960 and 1969 reported incidences of violent crime per 100,000 people in the United States nearly doubled and have yet to return to the levels of the early 1960s. Large riots broke out in many cities like Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, New York City, Newark, New Jersey, Oakland, California and Washington, D.C. By the end of the decade, politicians like George Wallace and Richard Nixon campaigned on restoring law and order to a nation troubled with the new unrest. Economics The decade began with a recession and at that time unemployment was considered high at around 7%. John F. Kennedy promised to "get America moving again." To do this, he instituted a 7% tax credit for businesses that invest in new plants and equipment. By the end of the decade, median family income had risen from $8,540 in 1963 to $10,770 by 1969. Minimum wage was $1.30 per hour / ~$2,700 per year (~$18,700 in 2018) Popular culture The counterculture movement dominated the second half of the 1960s, its most famous moments being the Summer of Love in San Francisco in 1967, and the Woodstock Festival in upstate New York in 1969. Psychedelic drugs, especially LSD, were widely used medicinally, spiritually and recreationally throughout the late 1960s, and were popularized by Timothy Leary with his slogan "Turn on, tune in, drop out". Psychedelic influenced the music, artwork and films of the decade, and several prominent musicians died of drug overdoses. There was a growing interest in Eastern religions and philosophy, and many attempts were made to found communes, which varied from supporting free love to religious puritanism. Music British Invasion: The Beatles arrive at John F. Kennedy International Airport, 7 February 1964 "The 60's were a leap in human consciousness. Mahatma Gandhi, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Che Guevara, Mother Teresa, they led a revolution of conscience. The Beatles, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix created revolution and evolution themes. The music was like Dalí, with many colors and revolutionary ways. The youth of today must go there to find themselves." – Carlos Santana. As the 1960s began, the major rock-and-roll stars of the '50s such as Chuck Berry and Little Richard had dropped off the charts and popular music in the US came to be dominated by Motown girl groups and novelty pop songs. Another important change in music during the early 1960s was the American folk music revival which introduced Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, The Kingston Trio, Harry Belafonte, Bob Dylan, Odetta, and many other Singer-songwriters to the public. Girl groups and female singers, such as the Shirelles, Betty Everett, Little Eva, the Dixie Cups, the Ronettes, and the Supremes dominated the charts in the early 1960s. This style consisted typically of light pop themes about teenage romance, backed by vocal harmonies and a strong rhythm. Most girl groups were African-American, but white girl groups and singers, such as Lesley Gore, the Angels, and the Shangri-Las emerged by 1963. Around the same time, record producer Phil Spector began producing girl groups and created a new kind of pop music production that came to be known as the Wall of Sound. This style emphasized higher budgets and more elaborate arrangements, and more melodramatic musical themes in place of a simple, light-hearted pop sound. Spector's innovations became integral to the growing sophistication of popular music from 1965 onward. Also during the early '60s, the “car song” emerged as a rock subgenre and coupled with the surf rock subgenre. Such notable songs include "Little Deuce Coupe," "409," and "Shut Down," all by the Beach Boys; Jan and Dean's "Little Old Lady from Pasadena" and "Drag City," among many others. While rock 'n' roll had 'disappeared' from the US charts in the early '60s, it never died out in Europe and Britain was a hotbed of rock-and-roll activity during this time.

Fashion Significant fashion trends of the 1960s include: The Beatles exerted an enormous influence on young men's fashions and hairstyles in the 1960s which included most notably the mop-top haircut, the Beatle boots and the Nehru jacket. The hippie movement late in the decade also had a strong influence on clothing styles, including bell-bottom jeans, tie-dye and batik fabrics, as well as paisley prints. The bikini came into fashion in 1963 after being featured in the film Beach Party. Mary Quant invented the miniskirt, which became one of the most popular fashion rages in the late 1960s among young women and teenage girls. Its popularity continued throughout the first half of the 1970s and then disappeared temporarily from mainstream fashion before making a comeback in the mid-1980s. Men's mainstream hairstyles ranged from the pompadour, the crew cut, the flattop hairstyle, the tapered hairstyle, and short, parted hair in the early part of the decade, to longer parted hairstyles with sideburns towards the latter half of the decade. Women's mainstream hairstyles ranged from beehive hairdos, the bird's nest hairstyle, and the chignon hairstyle in the early part of the decade, to very short styles popularized by Twiggy and Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby towards the latter half of the decade. African-American hairstyles for men and women included the afro.

In the deep night a public phone box rings. It could be Margate in England, the Florida Everglades or a tiny town in New Zealand. But who will pick up? And will this complete stranger share their life under the cloak of darkness? (A BBC Radio 4 production)
Alan Dein attempts to cross the world on a series of late night excursions via Facebook and Skype - discovering the real life dramas behind the online profiles. It's a hesitant start as Alan starts from a "Friend" count of zero, struggling to lure users away from the anonymity of the keyboard to the glare of the webcam - and engage in real verbal communication. Yet over five long late nights, he gradually builds up a circle of friends, crossing the time zones and discovering some startling stories. In this second programme, he's among those dreaming of freedom, talking to a man car-jacked in Caracas, and an Iranian evading the electronic eavesdropping of the authorities who's determined to flee the country. Five years ago, Alan Dein brought us the acclaimed Don't Hang Up, in which he set himself the task of calling phone boxes around the world to see who picked up. This time, the project reaches a whole new scale. Producers: Laurence Grissell and Sarah Bowen.
Alan Dein attempts to cross the world on a series of late night excursions via Facebook and Skype - discovering the real life dramas behind the online profiles across two programmes. It's a hesitant start as Alan starts from a "Friend" count of zero, struggling to lure users away from the anonymity of the keyboard to the glare of the webcam - and engage in real verbal communication. Yet over five long late nights, he gradually builds up a circle of friends, crossing the time zones and discovering some startling stories. In programme one, Alan's in the realm of love and loss - online and offline. He connects with a single parent snowbound in Nova Scotia, an Egyptian whose online romance turned sour and a Pakistani yearning for a girl from the wrong caste. In programme two, he's among those dreaming of freedom, talking to a man car-jacked in Caracas, and an Iranian evading the electronic eavesdropping of the authorities. Previously, Alan Dein brought us the acclaimed Don't Hang Up, in which he set himself the task of calling phone boxes around the world to see who picked up. This time, the project reaches a whole new scale. Producers: Laurence Grissell and Sarah Bowen.
