BBC Radio 2 - Sounds of the 70s with Johnnie Walker, JC Carroll

Johnnie hears 70s memories from JC Carroll of the Members.

Johnnie Walker is joined in conversation by JC Carroll from the punk band The Members.

The group formed in the late 1970s, initially performing on the London pub circuit. JC and fellow member Nicky Tesco began songwriting together and it wasn't long before they were signed to Stiff Records. The group had chart success with "The Sounds of The Suburbs". JC shares his memories of the time with Johnnie and picks some of his favourite songs from the decade.

Also on the show, Johnnie digs out some of the best of the BBC archive, and another listener helps to add a classic seven-inch single into Johnnie's Jukebox.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
