Chesney Hawkes - chart-topping singer songwriter - chooses the Tracks of My Years. There's the daily love song, record and album of the week plus PopMaster.

Chesney Hawkes - chart-topping singer songwriter - chooses the Tracks of My Years all week with Ken. Born in Berkshire, Chesney started his career at the age of 19 when he appeared in the film 'Buddy's Song' featuring his best known single 'The One and Only'. That song topped the UK singles chart for five weeks and reached the Top 10 in the United States.

Chesney's just released a new boxset 'The Compete Picture: The Albums 1991-2012' - a 112 track career spanning 5CD/1DVD package collating all his albums along with the B-sides, remixes, previously unreleased demos/outtakes and a DVD bringing together all his promo clips, bonus material, Top Of The Pops and live performances.

Chesney will also be playing live at various festivals across the spring and summer.

The next two tracks he has chosen come from Stevie Wonder and David Bowie. Ken also has the daily love song, record and album of the week plus another round of PopMaster. If you'd like to get in touch with the show email Ken.Bruce@bbc.co.uk
