Host Brian Matthew
--------------------------------
"Thank Your Lucky Stars" was a British television pop music show made by ABC Television, and broadcast on ITV from 1961 to 1966. Many of the top bands performed on it, and for millions of British teenagers it was essential viewing. As well as featuring British artists, American guests were frequent visitors.
Audience participation was a strong feature of "Thank Your Lucky Stars", and the Spin-a-Disc section, where a guest DJ and three teenagers reviewed three singles, is a very well remembered feature of the show. Generally American singles were reviewed.
The Merseyside specials are very fondly remembered and gained huge audiences.
The show bowed out in the summer of 1966, after two thousand artists had appeared on it.
I like this, however, any chance of seeing it without all the blurriness? Great video though.

I bought all the singles by these girls in the sixties. Sadly not many other people did! What appealed to me was the feisty, gutsy sound - sharp contrast to the sugar-sweet divas of the time. And now, listening to this ... it still does. Years later we got the Spice Girls. Born into the wrong era, girls.
