This week we catch up with JOAN ARMATRADING who recently celebrated her 70th birthday. Born in the West Indies, she's been singing up a storm for 50 years. 22 albums, countless music awards and several honours later she's still on fire. JOEY MOLLAND was the lead singer for the band BAD FINGER. Today he is its sole surviving member. Joey tells us all about the good times and the bad. Everyone knows JOHN OATES as one half of the best-selling duo of all time, HALL & OATES. Together with DARYL HALL whom he met while studying journalism at university, the pair have had 6 #1 hits, recorded 21 albums and sold more than 80 million records. John also works solo and was about to perform a live stream concert when I caught up with him. June, Bonnie, Ruth and Anita Pointer who were huge during the 70’s and 80’s as THE POINTER SISTERS. Unfortunately both June and Bonnie have since passed away. I caught up with Anita to hear the latest. Meet GORDON LIGHTFOOT - singer-songwriter and guitarist who’s achieved huge worldwide success in folk-rock, and country music. At 81, he’s still pumping out the music and touring today. After several months of trying, I managed to get Gordon on the other end of the phone line from his home in Toronto. Doo-Wop legend, DION DI MUCCI joins us too to tell us all about his latest music which includes friends, Boz Scaggs, Eric Clapton and Bruce Springsteen. What a charmer! Join me! "A Breath Of Fresh Air" with Sandy Kaye.
