Title: Johnnie Walker's Long Players
Post by: Billy’s Tune on January 16, 2014, 11:36:26 AM

Hi,

I heard a trailer on BBC Radio 2 last night for the new series of Johnnie Walker's Long Players where they discuss classic albums - and the trailer mentioned various artists to be included over the next few weeks including Dire Straits. The show is broadcast in the UK on Thursday evenings at 10pm. I can't find any info yet as to when DS will be on though or which album.

Cheers!

Johnnie Walker is a brilliant DJ who has always had a liking for Mark - he seems to be one of the few interviewers Mark opens up for and is natural!
