Joe Brown and Ritchie Valens

This Saturday on the Rock n Roll party, Geoff marks two double rock n roll birthdays.

This Saturday on the Rock n Roll party, Geoff marks two double rock n roll birthdays;
Joe Brown and Ritchie Valens were both born on the same day, as were Charlie Gracie and Bobby Darin. There`ll be tracks from all four. Also, it`s Eurovision! Unlikely to be much rock n roll there, so Geoff gets in the spirit with some great Euro-rockers from France, Italy, Finland, The Ukraine, Spain and more...

Maximum points all round on the Rock n Roll Party!
