Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the co-ordinates shown.

This is an ongoing series of caches to celebrate arguably the most influential decade in the history of popular music, the swinging sixties, so grab a granddad to help you out. The clues relate to artists, records &/or films of the decade and will require Internet searches to work out the final co-ordinates of the cache. What you have to find will be made clear in the narrative, but firstly you will need to work out the name of artist(s), song, album or film titles. As an added bonus for finding one of these SS caches, each cache will contain an additional clue to another SS cache. If you are lucky it may be one you will have yet to find, or not, as the case may be as the caches can be attempted in any order.

This group didn’t seem to know what their name was when they sang about people in their own age range, but they had a smashing time on stage despite people trying to put them down.

Find the UK release date of the LP  (DD/MM/YYYY)
and the US record label no. of the single of the same name. (XXXXX).

Calculate DDMM+YYYY+XXXXX  to get a five digit number PQRST

Cache is at North (SP-R)  (PQ-RT) . (PRS+T)  East (RS-RQ)  (PT-R) . (QTT+PRQ)

You are looking for a 35mm film canister.
As you can park next to the cache, this can be a cache & dash.
