Johnnie Walker celebrates the decade of Bachman Turner Overdrive, Boney M and Buzzcocks.

This week he's joined in conversation by Sir Cliff Richard, who in 2014 celebrates fifty-five years and one hundred albums in music. The seventies saw Cliff's comeback as a rock artist with some of his finest singles including Devil Woman, We Don't Talk Any More and Miss You Nights. Together with Johnnie, Cliff will cover his colourful life both on and off stage including his love of tennis, how his religion inspired his music and what continues to give him passion for music to this day.

Also on the show, Johnnie will revisit a moment from the decade courtesy of the 成人快手 archive and another classic seven-inch single will be added into Johnnie's Jukebox.
