Remembering Herbie Flowers

Johnnie pays tribute to bassist Herbie Flowers, who died last week.

Herbie Flowers played bass on an estimated 500 hits in the 1970s. From CCS to Lou Reed, T Rex to Cat Stevens and even Clive Dunn's 'Grandad', Herbie had a hand in them all. Johnnie will pay tribute to Herbie with the help of the 麻豆官网首页入口 Archives, including some words from Herbie himself.
Also on the show, Johnnie will travel back in time and take a look at key stories from 'This Week In Music' plus there's a new entry to Johnnie's Jukebox.
Another listener will nominate a BTO... will the 'Better Than The Original' cause controversy, or will you agree?! Pick your own 'BTO' (make sure it was recorded in the 1970s) and send in your choice to walker@bbc.co.uk
