All Shook Up: The Sound of Fury

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Mike Walker's play, inspired by events in the life of Billy Fury, is the first play in Radio 4's rock 'n' roll season presenting five true-life stories of musical pioneers.

Stricken with rheumatic fever as a child and not expected to live beyond the age of 20, Billy Fury went on to become Britain's answer to Elvis Presley.
