An archive chat with Elton John and Bernie Taupin

Johnnie revisits a classic interview with Elton John and Bernie Taupin.

The music of Elton John, along with the lyrics of Bernie Taupin form the bedrock of 1970's music.
On this show, Johnnie will revisit a classic chat with Elton and Bernie, discussing some of their biggest and best loved tracks of the decade.
Johnnie's Jukebox gets one more addition from a lucky listener, before the final track is added next week, for Johnnie's last show.
He will air as many of your dedications, requests and stories as he can, plus another song will be deemed worthy of the 'BTO' slot...but will you agree?!
Also, plenty of stories from This Week In Music from the decade, with the help of the Â鶹ԼÅÄ Archives.

To listen on most smart speakers just say “Sounds of the 70s with Johnnie Walker".
