Green Dress Wednesday

Vernon celebrates the very first Green Dress Wednesday, plus more from Mick Jagger in this week's Tracks of My Years with The Rolling Stones.

Vernon celebrates the very first Green Dress Wednesday. It's Wednesday, we're wearing green dresses. It's a thing.

Plus, more from Mick Jagger in this week's Tracks of My Years with The Rolling Stones. Today Mick talks about the variety in the band's sound and how he consumes modern pop, plus the band's relationship with The Beatles and having Paul McCartney play bass on their new album.

The band are releasing their new album Foreign Tongues this summer and across the week Mick and Ronnie take Vernon through their lives and careers in ten songs. You can hear Vernon's full chat with them in Tracks Of My Years on BBC Sounds, or watch the conversation on BBC iPlayer. Just search for 'Tracks Of My Years'.

Plus, two listeners take on a new round of our music quiz Ten To The Top and Vernon takes us back in time with the help of the BBC Archive in Vernon's Vault.

A BBC Audio production for BBC Radio 2.
