Alfie Bass does not, he pleads, like singing. Yet his whole career has led him, unwillingly, in the direction of music; from the days when he stood, silent and smoking, in the back row of a boys' choir, by way of Finian's Rainbow to bringing the house down with his portrayal of Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. He invites you to be his guest, but adds, 'Don't take any liberties' and he offers a selection of the music that has accompanied him in his career.
