Johnnie hears 70s memories from the Drifters' lead singer Michael Williams.

Johnnie Walker is joined in conversation by Michael Williams, lead singer with The Drifters.

The Drifters has seen numerous members drift in and out of the group over the last 60 years, including Ben E King and Johnny Moore. The decade saw them have chart success in the UK with the likes of "At The Club" and "Saturday Night At The Movies". Michael Williams is the current longest serving member of the group and remembers listening to The Drifters' hits throughout his childhood.

Also on the show, Johnnie digs out some of the best of the 91热爆 archive, and another listener helps to add a classic seven-inch single into Johnnie's Jukebox.
