Another fantastic playlist lies ahead, with Johnnie at the helm to guide you through top tunes including songs from the boxset reissue of George Harrison鈥檚 All Things Must Pass.

Dhani Harrison, the son of the former Beatle, is the Executive Producer of the vast 50th anniversary collection, and he鈥檚 calling the show to chat about those unexpected gems they found in the vaults, many of which have never been heard until now. The original triple album topped the chart in 1971, just as My Sweet Lord (one of the standout songs from it) was at no.1 on the singles chart. We鈥檒l play some of the familiar tracks that you know and love, alongside a few of the treasures that have been hidden. Expect a few anecdotes about the original sessions, and a story or two revealing Dhani鈥檚 happy memories of his legendary father.

Also on the programme, you鈥檒l get a kick out of the latest addition into Johnnie鈥檚 Jukebox from 1974.

There鈥檚 an unexpected change of direction in 1979 for one of Britain鈥檚 premiere rock bands as they go all acoustic on us for our One Of A Kind slot.

This Week In Music features the birthday for a Sparks brother, a famous stripped-back recording made in 1970, and the debut single from the Nutty Boys in 1979.

Plus lots of your mentions and stories throughout the show, combined with the best selection of amazing tracks.
