Events
  • Emergence of the London Underground scene: UFO Club, International Times, Oz Magazine. Peel is supportive, attending UFO during his shore leave from Radio London and promoting the underground press on the Perfumed Garden - but soon becomes critical of its commercialisation in events such as The Festival of the Flower Children, which takes place at Woburn Abbey on 25-27 August.
  • June 29: Mick Jagger and Keith Richards jailed on drugs charges. Peel devotes entire Perfumed Garden to Stones music in sympathy; Times editorial of 1 July challenges verdict ("Who Breaks a Butterfly on a Wheel?"). They are freed on appeal at end of July.
  • August 14: Radio London and other offshore pirate stations close down.
  • August 27: Beatles manager Brian Epstein found dead in his London flat.
  • September 30: BBC Radio One begins broadcasting.
