1/2. Adam White rewinds to the spring of 1965 to recall Tamla-Motown's star-studded 21-day
UK Tour, which coincided with the label's official British launch despite having already conquered the charts here in 1964 with smash hits by the Supremes and Mary Wells on its Stateside label. With input from industry veteran Vicki Wickham , former record executives Tony Hall and John Schroeder , and, from the archives,
Smokey Robinson and John Lennon. Plus early Motown hits and tasty rarities. Producer Paul Sexton
New series 1/4. Petula Clark profiles the legendary
- French chanteuse Edith Piaf , who died of cancer in 1963, aged 47, following a career marked by dramatically soaring performances, among them the genre-defining classics Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien and, perhaps most iconically, La Vie en Rose. The series features rare archive material and interviews with Charles Aznavour , composers
Charles Dumont and Francis Lai , and others. This first part recalls Piaf's impoverished early days, spent literally on the streets. Producer David Roper
