Perry Como on BBC Radio 2

Our playlist is now playing on Spotify, Albums available on iTunes & Amazon.
 
Jimmy Young recalls the remarkable 60-year career of one of the best-loved and certainly most laid-back entertainers of the 20th Century.

Perry Como started his working life cutting hair in a barber shop and went on to sell over 100 million records, pack concert halls all over the world and perform in the White House and before the Queen.
Star contributors to the programme include Burt Bacharach talking about how Perry came to record one of his early compositions 'Magic Moments' and the impact its success had on his own career.
