Brian Blessed - actor, broadcaster, writer and mountaineer - picks his Tracks Of My Years with Ken all this week.

With a career spanning six decades, Brian is known and loved for roles in TV shows including 'Z Cars', 'Blackadder' and 'I, Claudius', and of course his iconic portrayal of Prince Vultan in 'Flash Gordon'.

Brian's latest project is appearing as the Master Of Ceremonies in a new concert production of Tubular Bells. 'Tubular Bells With The Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra' celebrates 50 years of Mike Oldfield's legendary album, and as well as performing compere duties, Brian will also appear as 'The Caveman'. There'll be a trio of shows in Nottingham, London and Birmingham in October and November, with a companion album also set to be released.

Brian's next two choices come from Queen and Enya.

Plus Ken's got another round of the legendary PopMaster music quiz and your dedications with today's love song. There's also a brand new record and album of the week. If you want to contact the show, just email ken.bruce@bbc.co.uk.
