Link: Sir Terry Wogan
(You can listen to the show here):
The BBC told me later that the broadcast was estimated to have been heard by 12 million people!
They featured a lot of audio clips from my VoiceMasters CDs -- and in fact opened the show with one of my rare tracks. Sir Terry was an excellent host and his sincerity really came across during the broadcast. He recalled how he used to be a deejay who got many, many requests from fans to play Jim Reeves songs, and he was a fan of Jim's as well.
I was honored to be asked to appear on the radio tribute he hosted and they gave me a lot of air time, using 13 comments of mine, with Wogan identifying me as the author of the 672-page award winning book, "Jim Reeves: His Untold Story." Sir Terry was knighted at Buckingham palace in 2005.
Clink the link below for a story about his fascinating life and read tributes to him.
My condolences to the family and friends of this fine man.
