BBC Radio 2
on BBC Radio 2

To celebrate Russ Conway's 70th birthday and 40th year in show business, friends and colleagues talk about the man who recorded such huge hits as Side Saddle and composed lovely music like Jeanie. Tim Rice and Harry Secombe, Mrs Matt Monro, Dennis Lotis, Bill Cotton Jr, Norman Newell and many more pay tribute to the man behind the smile, for many years one of Britain's brightest stars.
