The extraordinary JIMMY WEBB takes us on a journey through his life, from humble beginnings on the farm in midwest America to Hollywood where he lived the life of excess, hobnobbed with the who’s who of showbiz and when honoured with multiple grammy awards, finally met the artist he’d most admired since childhood. He’s written hundreds of tunes many of which you’ll instantly recognise. Like what you hear? Perhaps you’d like to request a guest? Simply send me an email don't forget to take a look at my website This week I’m excited to catch up with one of the best known and most loved singer- songwriters from the '60s and '70s. Founding member ALAN WARNER tells us all about the band's incredible journey. The band started out in the late 60’s as a 12-piece group and made their mark as one of the first multi racial acts to perform in London. Who could forget British band, THE FOUNDATIONS? Their smash hit, 'Build Me Up Buttercup' took the world by storm and remains a firm favourite for many people the world over.
Rose shares their story with us this week. The CORNELIUS BROTHERS AND SISTER ROSE imploded though after they tasted success. They were a family band from Florida siblings Carter, Eddie, Rose and Billie Jo Cornelius and were the toast of the town in 1972 with a song that climbed the charts right around the world. With a new album out now, I caught up with Charlie in Clarksdale Mississippi and discovered a humble, down to earth and extremely talented gentleman. He’s won 14 Blues Music Awards, been nominated for six Grammys, and received multiple Lifetime Achievement Awards. Grammy Award-winning music legend CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE is renowned worldwide as a master harmonica player, a seasoned, truth-telling vocalist and an original songwriter rooted deep in the blues tradition. I'm so excited to be able to introduce you to three terrific musical guests.
