Kathy Sledge shares her favourite 70s tracks and memories.

Kathy was the lead singer of the iconic 70s family vocal group Sister Sledge. During the decade, they scored major hits everywhere from the U.K. to Japan with "Mama Never Told Me" and "Love Don't You Go Through No Changes On Me." In between, they won the Silver Award at the Tokyo Music Festival and appeared at Zaire 74, a concert conceived by Hugh Masekela in tandem with the historic "Rumble in the Jungle" match between Muhammed Ali and George Foreman. They worked with producers Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards on their critically acclaimed We Are Family (1979) album which went platinum.

Also on the show, Johnnie hears all the stories from This Week In Music, and hears from a listener about why their favourite record should be inducted into Johnnie's Jukebox.
