Johnnie celebrates Queen's 1979 release Live Killers, and Steve Forbert gives his memories of the decade.

Johnnie Walker celebrates the decade of Robin, Chrissy and Jo.

This week the bombast of Queen will be celebrated as their concert album Live Killers is featured in depth. Recorded on the European leg of their Jazz world tour, it finds the band at their live peak and was also the first album the band produced themselves.

Also on the show, Steve Forbert will pick two of his favourites from the decade in My 70s. Best known for his hit Romeo's Tune, he emerged on the music scene in 1978 with Alive On Arrival and has continued to record and perform ever since.

The first song Stevie Wonder produced on his own will be celebrated with sounds from the archive as we revisit Signed, Sealed, Delivered, plus another classic track will be added into Johnnie's Jukebox.
