An evening in with Johnny Marr!

Jo is joined by Johnny Marr to co-host the show.

Ahead of the release of Spirit Power: The Best of Johnny Marr, Jo is joined by the legend himself to co-host the show.

Having first found success as the guitarist and co-songwriter of the Smiths, Johnny Marr released his first solo album The Messenger in 2013, followed by Playland, Call the Comet and Fever Dreams, parts 1-4. All four albums reached the top ten in the UK album chart.

In celebration of the tenth anniversary of his solo career, Johnny’s β€˜Best Of’ album Spirit Power will be released tomorrow. As well as songs from across all four albums, it includes two brand new tracks and a cover of Depeche Mode’s I Feel You.

Johnny joins Jo to reflect on the last ten years, discuss the new project, and pick some tracks that have influenced his life.
