Craig Charles catches up with American doo-wop and R&B vocal group the Drifters.

Tonight Craig catch up with an American doo-wop and R&B vocal group, that have been going since the early 50's. As you'd expect there have been a few changes to the line up as they've had over 30 band members over the years. They're currently touring the UK on a legends tour and will be stopping by the 6 Music studios.
We'll be taking you back to 1997 in The Funk & Soul Years so you can expect tracks from Nu Yorican Soul, The Source & Candi Staton and Smoke City.
