For anyone not familiar with The Tracks Of My Years, two of George's choices will be played from 11:40 - 11:50am from Monday to Friday and he will be interviewed briefly about what they mean to him in between the songs.

It was the final day of George Benson on The Tracks Of My Years today and Marti was just mentioned in the short interview with Ken Bruce between the songs - George said that he didn't know Marti yet but had heard a lot of good things about him, or something like that. It will be on the iPlayer later, anyway.   Wink

George's interview is now on the iPlayer at http://www.bbc.co.uk...onsole/b00r8drp.

2:15.32 - 2:18.16

The bit about Marti:

Ken: And you’re joined by Marti Pellow on the tour?

George: Marti Pellow - I’ve heard a lot about him - I don’t know him yet but I’m sure I’m going to get to know him because everyone that hears his name leaps to their feet with good words about him, so that’s a good sign.

Ken: Especially the women, I believe!

George: Well, he’s got it made, then!
