The legendary music show ran for more than 17 years on BBC Two before ending in 1988, before returning for a one-off special earlier this year with massive success, and the programme is now lined up to come back for a longer run with the 78-year-old long-serving DJ as the presenter.
A source told the Sun's Bizarre TV column: "Annie met with the BBC last month about looking at ways they can bring back the legendary show.
"They were blown away by the success of the one-off special and realised there was still an appetite for it.
"Fans will want more than just old clips, so hopefully they'll find a concept that works for everyone."
Annie took over on the original show for four years after host Bob Harris quit.
The programme has seen performances from the likes of Bob Marley and the Wailers and early footage of Roxy Music, Billy Joel, and Tom Petty.
The 72-year-old radio presenter said prior to the first remake that the response to the first adaptation was "fabulous", although he admits some fans were dubious.
He said: "The response has been fabulous! Very bittersweet, during my last two years on the show I came under intensive fire from the punk bands."
The host reminisced on the early days of his career and admitted that he "loved" the open-ended creativity.
He said: "It was this word-of-mouth doorway into an exclusive club; you wouldn't hear these musicians anywhere else.
"Because they couldn't afford to dress the studio, everyone looked like squatters. Plus it was the last programme of the night, so if a guitar solo went on too long, no one complained. Open-ended creativity. I loved it."
