Big hits and intriguing misses from some of the biggest acts and most prominent writing\/ production teams of the era. In 1967, British pop radio underwent a seismic change when the pirate stations that had ruled the airwaves over the previous couple of years were declared illegal by an Act of Parliament and replaced by a national station controlled by publicly-funded broadcaster the BBC. The arrival of Radio 1 saw the British pop scene remade in the station's own image, with a new wave of songwriting and production teams competing to create bright, brassy, relentlessly upbeat tracks that would be embraced by Radio 1's all-important playlist. While The Love Affair, The Herd, The Tremeloes and The Foundations were among the groups who made the headlines, the key figures were really the backroom auteurs: names like Tony Macaulay, Howard Blaikley and arranger Keith Mansfield were all integral to the new, homogenised pop radio sound. 'All Things Bright And Beautiful: The UK Pop Explosion' is a 3CD, four-hour celebration of this pivotal period in British pop history, with a huge number of key hits - including several featured in the opening hour of Radio 1's first broadcast - joined by more minor successes and some 45s that received considerable airplay but nevertheless failed to make the grade. Housed in Grapefruit's standard clamshell box packaging with a 48-page booklet and track- by-track annotation, it's another essential purchase for any late 60s pop aficionado.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlowers In The Rain - The\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMove\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimon Smith ; The Amazing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDancing Bear - Alan Price Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou're All Things Bright And\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautiful - Neil Christian\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Live For The Sun - Vanity Fare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmokey Blue's Away - A New Generation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaby Now That I've Found You -The Foundations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThanks - J.
