Who's up for Ten To The Top?
Pop superstar Cher chooses two more Tracks Of My Years, the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top is at 1030, and there's two more trips in to the archive in Vernon's Vault.
Global pop icon Cher is the special guest on this week's Tracks Of My Years, taking us on a journey through her six decade career as well as picking a few of her favourite Christmas songs.
Across a six decade career, she’s sold over 100m records, has a trophy cabinet chock full of awards including a Grammy, an Emmy and an Oscar, and is known for her being a trendsetter, an activist, a philanthropist and just a fabulous human being.
Even at 77, she’s still capable of firsts, and she recently released her first festive album called, appropriately, Christmas. Her first new studio album in five years, it includes several holiday classics and four originals, and has a star-studded list of guests including Darlene Love, Stevie Wonder, Michael Bublé and Cyndi Lauper.
Today's Christmas choice from Cher comes from John Lennon.
Plus more audio nuggets from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Archive in Vernon's Vault; the Record and Album Of The Week; and the mid-morning music quiz, Ten To The Top.
