Simon Napier Bell shares his 70s memories

Songwriter, producer and manager Simon Napier Bell is Johnnie's 'My 70s' guest.

Few people have had such a breadth of experience in the music industry as Simon Napier Bell. Songwriter for Elvis and Dusty Springfield? Yes. Manager of groundbreaking bands such as The Yardbirds? That too.

With success spanning from the 60s to now, Simon has written several books about his life in music. His latest, 'Sour Mouth, Sweet Bottom' will be published soon. He chats to Johnnie about his life in the 1970s and memories of working with some of the best artists in the world.

Johnnie's Jukebox is back, as are your suggestions for 'One Of A Kind' and 'Better Than The Original'. Get on touch with your dedications and memories - email Johnnie on walker@bbc.co.uk.
