Jamie Oliver chooses his Tracks Of My Years

Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver chooses his Tracks of My Years, and there's a new Album and Record Of The Week, 91Èȱ¬ Archive in Vernon's Vault and another round of Ten To The Top.

Chef, campaigner, writer and TV presenter Jamie Oliver chooses his Tracks Of My Years all this week.

Jamie first caught the eye of TV producers when he made an unscripted appearance in a 1997 91Èȱ¬ documentary ‘Christmas at the River Café’, and just 2 years later his own show 'The Naked Chef' shot him to fame.

Since then he's become not only a national treasure but a worldwide phenomenon, with a food empire that encompasses TV shows, online, books (he's the top-selling non-fiction author in UK history), restaurants and charity work.

Jamie's next TV venture is called Jamie's Christmas Shortcuts, which will air in December, and he's also published his 26th best-selling cookery book 5 Ingredients Mediterranean.

Jamie's first two tracks are from Otis Reading and Bon Jovi.

Plus more audio nuggets from the 91Èȱ¬ Archive in Vernon's Vault; a brand new Record and Album Of The Week and the mid-morning music quiz, Ten To The Top.

Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you - email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you’d like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk.
