Brian Matthew selects more classics and rarities from pop's golden decade, with all the facts and figures and stories behind the songs.

That 60s stalwart Cliff Richard is getting a double play with 'The Minute You're Gone' and its B side 'Just Another Guy' from 1965, both getting a spin. The latter of which, was written by Neil Diamond and issued as the A side in some parts of Europe as it was felt that its up tempo beat would be a bigger hit.
