The Cake Out In the Rain
By the age of 23, Jimmy Webb had written, arranged and produced number one records and also received the ultimate seal of approval for a composer when both Streisand and Sinatra sang his songs. In the first of two programmes, Webb recalls his years of success, with comments from his first champions Glen Campbell - By the Time I Get to Phoenix,
Wichita Lineman - and Richard Harris - Didn't We and MacArthur Park.
A Howlett Media production
