Allan Clarke from The Hollies remembers a change of direction for the band in the 70s and his recent comeback after 20 years out of the business.

As co-founder and lead vocalist of The Hollies, Allan amassed 18 top ten hits and sold millions of singles and albums all over the world, including the instantly recognisable singles as 'He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother,' and 'The Air That I Breathe.' As a soloist, Clarke recorded eight studio albums between 1972 and 1989. But now after taking a 20 year break, he's back with a new studio album 'Resurgence'.

Also on the show, Johnnie hears all the stories from This Week In Music, and adds another record to his giant virtual Jukebox.
