Writer Paolo Hewitt remembers Faces bassist Ronnie Lane, and Johnnie marks the 40th anniversary of the release of the Sex Pistols' iconic debut album with an exclusive interview from Noel Gallagher.

Ronnie shared primary songwriting duties with his Faces bandmates Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood, but after 4 albums together Lane grew unhappy and quit the band in 1973. Lane formed his own band, Slim Chance, who recorded the singles "How Come" (UK No. 11) and "The Poacher" (UK No. 36). In late 1976 he joined a short-lived reformation of Small Faces but quit after two rehearsals, to be replaced by Rick Wills (who later played alongside former Small Faces drummer Kenney Jones in the Jones Gang). However, Lane had signed a contract with Atlantic Records as part of the Small Faces, and was informed that he owed the company an album. His ensuing album with Pete Townshend, Rough Mix, produced by Glyn Johns, which was released in 1977, was lauded as contender for best album of the year by many critics, but sales were lacklustre. During the recording of Rough Mix, Lane was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Nonetheless he toured, wrote and recorded (with Eric Clapton among others) and in 1979 released another album, See Me, which features several songs written by Lane and Clapton.

Also on the show, Johnnie peruses the stories from This Week In Music, and adds another record to his Jukebox.
