Story by Alison Prince.
He builds a shelter.
He is now one of the most popular record stars in England or the USA. And it's not surprising. His songs have unusual, even quirky, melody lines and highly individual lyrics. Yet he's one of the most unsophisticated of composers. He gets his inspiration from bizarre newspaper cuttings, hymns, snatches of conversation. His ambition is to be known as the 'Cole Porter of his day.'
