Love and Money singer James Grant explains why the Kenny Dalglish poster in his bedroom soon gave way to one of guitarist Jimmy Page when he discovered the sound of Led Zeppelin.

1/8
Love and Money were one of the most successful bands to come out of Scotland in the 1980's. Songs like Jocelyn Square and Strange Kind of Love brought them wide recognition and an appearance on the Wogan show transformed their fortunes overnight.

Lead vocalist James Grant began his musical career with the band Friends Again but it wasn't until his Love and Money days that he was happy to stand behind the microphone.

Now recording as a solo artist James tells Phil about his days on the road, how his hamburger bill in the United States ran into thousands of pounds and why he'd like Susan Boyle to record one of his songs.

The programme opens with Strange Kind of Love and James picks the following 5 songs.
