It’s your weekly playlist of amazing 70s tracks and memories, handpicked by Johnnie.

And we’re back in the archives for another superstar interview, this time from 2011.

Debbie Harry and Chris Stein from Blondie stopped by and discussed why the Punk and New Wave movements were inevitable at the end of the decade, especially when American F.M. rockers got lazy. They talk about the scene in New York at the time, and how they and their fellow ‘outsiders’ flipped things on their head, unwittingly becoming global mainstream pop stars in the process.

‘This Week In Music’ features the debut release from one of the U.K.’s great independent labels, Stiff Records. Plus an unlikely chart double that occurred in 1975 when an often-forgotten U.S. soul act landed both the no.1 single and album in this country.

Jo Turner from Pewsey in Wilshire selects a brilliant feel-good summer smash from the Top 10 this week in 1973 as the next addition to Johnnie’s Jukebox.

And there are more of your requests, dedications and stories throughout the show.
