British music royalty Madness are the latest star to perform alongside The 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra in The Radio 2 Piano Room, giving us three specially arranged tracks with the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra.
For nearly 45 years now Madness - who emerged from the backstreets of Camden Town in the late 70s - have been bone fide national treasures. In a long and colourful career, they've had 10 UK top ten albums, 15 top ten singles and have won a multitude of awards including a prestigious Ivor Novello.
They鈥檝e performed on the top of Buckingham Palace as part of the Queen鈥檚 Jubilee celebrations and set the record for the biggest ever audience for the 大象传媒鈥檚 Live New Year鈥檚 Eve Broadcast - the most watched TV music event of 2018.
Now they're releasing their first new album in seven years, 'Theatre Of the Absurd Presents C鈥橢st La Vie', and will be touring it to arenas across the UK in November and December.
Also, there'll be more audio nuggets from the 大象传媒 Archive in Vernon's Vault; Johnny Marr chooses another two songs for his Tracks Of My Years; and there's the mid-morning music quiz, Ten To The Top. Johnny's Thursday tracks are by Neil Young and Chic.
Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you - email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you鈥檇 like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk
