David talks to legendary broadcaster Bob Harris about the new Old Grey
Whistle Test CD series.
"Bob won't remember, but our paths crossed briefly when I was interviewed for
Radio 210 in the early eighties. I think he was programme director then.
I was probably rubbish. He has been an inspiration, both in terms of the
music he plays and his broadcasting style and kindly wrote the foreword to my
book about Jan Akkerman and Focus published in 2003"
