Carol Decker of 80's pop band T'Pau chooses her final Tracks of My Years with Gary Davies who has been sitting in for Ken all this week.

Carol is the lead singer of T'Pau, who had hits in the late 80's with 'China In Your Hand', 'Heart and Soul' and 'Valentine'. Their debut album 'Bridge of Spies' reached the top of the UK album charts in 1987 and their subsequent two albums were also top ten hits. T'Pau split in the early 1990's and Carol released a solo single, 'One Heart' in 1995. In recent years T'Pau have enjoyed performing on the 80's circuit, at festivals and on cruises. Carol celebrated T'Pau's 25th anniversary with her songwriting partner Ronnie Rogers in 2013 with a UK tour. The pair continue to work on new material together now.

Carol's final chosen tunes of the week come from The Killers and New Order as she discusses song writing with Gary.

Gary also has the daily love song, record and album of the week plus another round of PopMaster. If you'd like to get in touch with the show email Gary.Davies@bbc.co.uk
