Johnnie’s here with the perfect ‘70s soundtrack to your loved-up weekend.
Plus he pays tribute to Supremes legend Mary Wilson who passed away on Monday.
Mary was a guest on the show in 2015, and spoke about the worry in the Motown camp when it was announced that Diana Ross was about to start her solo career, leaving the group behind. We’ll revisit that interview and hear Mary's favourite '70s song from another of her great label mates that decade.
We’re in the archives with Valentine-themed no.1s hits from this very week in 1970, 1976 and 1977.
The latest entry into Johnnie’s Jukebox comes courtesy of listener Steve Powley in Paignton, and couldn’t be more appropriate for 14th February.
There are loads of your song requests, dedications, stories and messages… and there might be a familiar voice popping up to read out a few of them during the show.
For a mention on any future programmes, we’d love you to get in touch: walker@bbc.co.uk
