Cher discusses her final Tracks Of My Years

Cher discusses her last two Tracks Of My Years, and there's two final dips in to Vernon's Vault, Ten To The Top at 1030 and the final spins of the Record and Album Of The Week.

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.

Plus more audio nuggets from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Archive in Vernon's Vault; the final spins of the Record and Album Of The Week and the mid-morning music quiz, Ten To The Top.

Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you - email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you’d like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk
