Graham Parker and Brinsley Schwarz

Graham Parker and Brinsley Schwarz join Johnnie to share memories of the decade that saw them come together to release hits like Hold Back the Night.

Johnnie Walker is joined live in the studio by Graham Parker and Brinsley Schwarz.

The seventies saw Brinsley Schwarz front his own band before forming The Rumour in 1976. The group went on to become the backup band for Graham Parker as well as recording artists in their own right. Graham and Brinsley join Johnnie to share their memories of the decade that saw them come together to release hits like "Hold Back The Night" and "Hey Lord Don't Ask Me Questions".

Also on the show, Johnnie digs out some of the best of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ archive. Plus another listener helps to add a classic seven-inch single into Johnnie's Jukebox.
