With New Seeker Marty Kristian

Johnnie Walker celebrates the 70s, spinning the hits and digging out some rarities. His guest is New Seeker and early 70s teen pin-up, Marty Kristian.

From Top of the Pops to platforms and Jackie to jumpsuits, Johnnie Walker revisits the 1970s. This week home-grown heartthrob Marty Kristian, from the New Seekers recalls his favourite memories and music of his decade of pop stardom.

The New Seekers were known for their mixed-gender line-up and sold 35 million records off the back of singles such as I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing, Beg, Steal or Borrow, You Won't Find Another Fool Like Me and Never Ending Song of Love.

As he releases an album of New Seekers demo recordings, Marty recalls performing for the likes of President Nixon and The Queen and gracing teenage walls alongside David Cassidy and Donny Osmond. He also pays tribute to fellow band member Cathy Logan, who recently passed away.

Also on the show, we hear an artist or personality of the decade wax lyrical on the wireless in Radio Rewind and Johnnie spins three gems from a classic 70s album.
