Phyllis and her conservative friends listened to classical music, yet the free and easy disco version of Beethoven’s Fifth, better fitted the feminists. It fits the era and was chosen because it represented both sides of the story. The opening theme for the show, which has caused the aforementioned earworm, is A Fifth of Beethoven by Walter Murphy. Prominent feminists of the day, such as Betty Freidan and Gloria Steinem, are key characters, and I feel ashamed that I am only now learning of their contribution to a movement that has given me much of what I have always taken for granted. A historical drama I was keen to watch this week was Mrs America (now on the BBC iPlayer) which tells the story of the movement to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment in the 1970s, and the unexpected backlash led by conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly.

The brothers co-wrote all of their own hits, as well as writing and producing several major hits for other artists.ġ966 You Wouldn't Know (Archive) 1st (2 CD) Horizontal (2 CD) Idea (2 CD) Odessa A Kick In The Head (Unreleased Album Archive) Cucumber Castle 2 Years On Trafalgar To Whom It May Concern Life In A Tin Can Mr.Roll Over Beethoven sang Chuck Berry back in 1956. The group sang three-part tight harmonies that were instantly recognisable Robin's clear vibrato lead was a hallmark of their earlier hits, while Barry's R&B falsetto became their signature sound during the late 1970s and 1980s. The trio were successful for most of their 40-plus years of recording music, but they had two distinct periods of exceptional success: as a pop act in the late 1960s and early 1970s and as prominent performers of the disco music era in the late 1970s.
