‘Taking The Lead’ Judith Durham / Marti Pellow / Tony Hadley / Martin Fry / Richard Clayderman

"Tales from a very minor celebrity"

Hello once again and thank you for once again joining me for another edition of ‘Tales From A Very Minor Celebrity’, a look back at my life in TV and radio and a delve into my celebrity archive looking back at some of the many interviews I have done over the years and continue to do as well..

This week is a bit of a milestone for my podcast, episode 20!….so I have decided to have a short break….it’s ok….I know there will be a weeping and a waling and gnashing of teeth with that bombshell but do not fret, it will be only a couple of weeks or so which gives me time to recharge the batteries, sort through some more celebrity interviews and decide which way I’m going to take this podcast in the future.

This week it’s the last in the series of interviews with some of the great musicians and singers I’ve interviewed and we’re going out with a bang…coming up some great lead singers of their respective bands and a pianist.

You’ll hear from Marti Pellow former lead singer with Wet Wet Wet, Tony Hadley and Martin Fry lead singers with Spandau Ballet and ABC respectively and Richard Clayderman…which is notable because I had no idea he was French until we started the interview…that was a bit of a surprise and a great example of what can happen when you don’t bother to research your guests….
But first it’s Judith Durham, lead singer with the Seekers before she went off to do her own thing and who sadly died just recently.
