Johnnie hears the 70s memories of legendary lyricist and composer Sir Richard Stilgoe.

Johnnie hears the 70s memories of legendary lyricist and composer Sir Richard Stilgoe.

Born in 1943, Sir Richard was brought up in Liverpool, where, as lead singer of a group called 'Tony Snow and the Blizzards', he performed at the Cavern Club. He made his name on the 成人快手 television teatime programme, Nationwide, followed by Esther Rantzen's That's Life!, a light-hearted consumer affairs programme for which he wrote comic songs satirising minor domestic misfortunes. His ability to write a song from almost any source material and at speed is part of his cabaret act, and in 1979 the 成人快手 aired "Decision '79 Breakfast Special" with Stilgoe singing the election results.

Also on the show, Johnnie adds a new single to the Jukebox and hears all the stories from this week in music from the 70s.
