What's in Vernon's Vault?

Vernon's mid-morning fun includes delving into the BBC archive in Vernon's Vault and Chaka Khan selects two more songs in Tracks Of My Years.

Vernon's mid-morning fun includes delving into the BBC archive in Vernon's Vault, but where and when are we going to today? Plus, two new listeners take on the mid-morning music quiz Ten to The Top.

In Tracks Of My Years we continue our ten-track journey through the life of a special guest - and this week it's Chaka Khan. Ahead of headlining Radio 2 In The Park, Chaka tells Vernon about her memories of the late great Whitney Houston, and selects songs by Prince and Miles Davis.

All amongst some great music to keep you smiling through the morning.

Listen to Vernon’s full conversations with his guests for Tracks Of My Years on BBC Sounds, and watch on BBC iPlayer and Radio 2's YouTube channel, just search for 'Tracks Of My Years'.

A BBC Audio production for BBC Radio 2.
