About this program

An amazing thing happened to the world of music in the early 1960’s. Groups of British young men with matching suits and shaggy hair took their pop music from Britain to the world and it was called “the British Invasion. Take 5 young bad boys from London, a passion for the Blues, a grey and boring post war England, add in a mix of Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley, shake well and pour out the greatest Rock and Roll band in history, The ROLLING STONES. How has this band written nearly 400 songs and over 30 hit albums? How are these octogenarians still touring after nearly 60 years together?We’ll look at how they came together, their music and why they are still together. Drop-in $25, Space Permitting
