Johnnie Walker meets Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, the two men responsible for creating the British pop group Squeeze in 1974.

This week, Johnnie talks to Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook from the pop group Squeeze.

Hailed as one of the links between classic British guitar pop and post-punk, the group started out in Deptford, South East London, in 1974. Naming themselves after a Velvet Underground album, they went on to have great success in the 70s with hits like Take Me I'm Yours, Cool For Cats and Up The Junction.

Chris and Glenn revisit the 70s as they remember these formative years and the success they enjoyed during this decade.
