Suzi focuses on 1985, with tracks from David Lee Roth, Don Henley, REO Speedwagon, Heart, John Fogerty, Tom Petty, Huey Lewis, Starship and Lionel Richie.

Suzi Quatro plays the music she heard in her formative years, from doo-wop to Motown and rock 'n' roll, taking us through the Fifties and Sixties right up to the present day.

Suzi often features American classics that never made the wireless over here and loves telling anecdotes about her American Heroes.

Every week Suzi focuses on a particular year in American chart history and once a month Suzi talks to a special guest about their American influences. This week it's 1985 - the year of Live Aid in London and Philidelphia, when MTV was making an impression on the charts with David Lee Roth's California Girls and Don Henley's Boys Of Summer.

Suzi features these alongside fellow Eagle Glen Frey, REO Speedwagon, Heart, John Fogerty, Tom Petty, Huey Lewis, Starship and Lionel Richie.
