American singer-songwriter Dean Friedman shares his 70s memories.

American singer-songwriter Dean Friedman shares his 70s memories.

At the start of the decade, Dean was a teenager playing guitar at weddings and bar mitzvahs, but by the time he was 20 in 1975 he had a manager and a recording contract. In the United States he is described as a one-hit wonder, following his 1977 hit song "Ariel", which reached number 26 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and stayed in the chart for five months. In the UK "Ariel" did not chart, but 3 of his other songs made the Top 100 in 1978 including a No.3 hit single with Denise Marsa called "Lucky Stars".

Also on the show, Johnnie uncovers the stories from This Week In Music and another classic seven-inch single enters Johnnie's Jukebox.
