The Beatles through one speaker! And Amy MacDonald… Interview: John Lewis______________________The first record I ever bought
Jimi Hendrix – Crash Landing (1975)
The Who officially brought the London Olympics to a close with "My Generation".
Ray Davies, Madness and Pink Floyd's Nick Mason were among the other artists who performed at the Olympics closing ceremony.
Beady Eye played Oasis' 'Wonderall' during the 'A Symphony of British Music' segment. Backed by a string orchestra, Liam Gallagher was joined by the athletes and the thousands in attendance in singing the 90's Britpop hit. It is the first time Liam has sang the track live since Oasis split up in 2009.
