Johnnie Walker meets one of the most influential guitarists of all time, Hank Marvin.

Johnnie Walker celebrates the decade of X-Ray Spex, Yes and ZZ Top.

This week he's joined in conversation by Hank Marvin, who in 2014 is celebrating sixty years since he first picked up the guitar. Best known for his work with The Shadows, the group were the first backing band to emerge as stars in their own right. Alongside Cliff Richard and on their own they have achieved sixty-nine UK hit singles and sold over twenty million records. Hank and Johnnie will cover a life lived in music, plus his work with The Shadows and solo material in the seventies.

Also on the show, Johnnie will revisit a moment from the decade courtesy of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ archive and another classic seven-inch single will be added into Johnnie's Jukebox.
