Johnnie hears 70s memories from US disco group Sister Sledge.

Johnnie Walker is joined in conversation by American disco group Sister Sledge.

The family group from Philadelphia formed in the early 1970s and had their breakthrough in the later part of the decade when they were connected with producers Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards from the band Chic. They went on to have hits including "Lost In Music", "He's The Greatest Dancer" and "We Are Family". The sisters Debbie, Joni and Kim are still performing today and share their memories of the decade.

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. He will also pay tribute to legendary record producer George Martin.
