Bruce Welch OBE chooses the Tracks of My Years
Bruce Welch chooses the Tracks of My Years with music from the Everly Brothers and the Killers. There's the daily love song, record and album of the week and PopMaster.
Bruce Welch OBE founding member of Britain鈥檚 most successful instrumental group The Shadows chooses his Tracks of My Years with music from the Everly Brothers and the Killers. Bruce was born in Bognor Regis in Sussex but spent most of his early years in County Durham. Aged just 14 he formed his first skiffle group with a school friend 鈥� Hank Marvin. Hank and Bruce performed under the name the Geordie Boys and as members of the Five Chesternuts. It was after a performance at Soho鈥檚 famous 2i鈥檚 coffee bar that they were asked to join Cliff Richard鈥檚 backing band 鈥� the Drifters who later renamed themselves the Shadows. As a composer Bruce is responsible for a whole string of hits including 鈥� Foot Tapper, The Rise and Fall of Flingel Bunt, In the Country and Summer Holiday. Along with the Shadows he appeared in Cliff鈥檚 films 鈥� The Young Ones, Summer Holiday, Wonderful Life, Finders Keepers and represented the UK at the 1975 Eurovision Song Contest with Let Me Be The One coming in second behind the Netherlands with Ding A Dong. Classic hits by the Shadows are featured on a new compilation - Dreamboats and Petticoats. Ken's got another round of the legendary PopMaster music quiz and your dedications with today's love song. There's also the record and album of the week. If you want to contact the show, just email - ken.bruce@bbc.co.uk
