Get Down to the Sounds of the 70s with Bob!

Bob goes back to his 1970s roots with classic tracks from across myriad of musical genres of the decade, and he'll play tribute to legendary producer Quincy Jones.

Bob is back, with his feet firmly planted back in the roots of the show he first presented... over fifty years ago!

He's got all the happenings from this week in music in the 1970s with ‘The Rock Date Diary’, and he digs deep in the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Archives for another classic Old Grey Whistle Test performance for the ‘Best of The Test’. He’ll also highlight another 70s ‘Country Classic’.

Bob will also mark the passing of pioneering record producer Quincy Jones, who died this week.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say “Sounds of the 70s with Bob Harris".
