| Steven Warner 28th Aug 2023 |  | Live MusicGrand Celebrity Concert @ Royal Albert Hall | The concert, billed as GRAND CELEBRITY CONCERT, was in aid of the London Fire Service Benevolent Fund, with Dennis Noble, the Western Brothers, Anne Shelton, Renee Houston and Donald Stewart, Rawicz and Landauer, and Harry Fryer and his Orchestra. The concert was introduced by Gerry Wilmot and broadcast live on the B.B.C. Forces Programme. Petula is not credited as appearing, but in the first chapters of her life story Petula refers to the concert and the date: I shall never forget how scared I was before I was due to go on to the vast stage at the Royal Albert Hall, and where under the great dome I sang before 8000 people. I was barely ten years old! I'll never forget the occasion, as Pop was on duty that night and couldn't be with me to cheer me up. But the following morning Mr. Harry Fryer with whose orchestra I was then singing, wrote to Pop: "She was a sensation, and I thought you would like to know this. I am only sorry you weren't able to be there to see how she stole the show". The day that letter was written – 21st June 1943 – was certainly a red-letter day for me. By the same post came a letter asking me to go to Elstree Studios for my first screen test! The concert was broadcast on the BBC's Forces Programme : https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/30d7102250514f71afed96f9a47b4f67 |
| Steven Warner 11th Oct 2020 |  | CD AlbumPetula Clark - Christmas In London | "My Favourite Things" has long been considered a Christmas song and has appeared on Christmas albums by Jack Jones, Johnny Mathis, Kenny Rogers, Carpenters, Lorrie Morgan, the Whispers, Luther Vandross, Perry Como, Barry Manilow, Anita Baker, Dionne Warwick, the Brian Setzer Orchestra, Kenny G, Rod Stewart, Carole King, Chicago, Kelly Clarkson, Mary J. Blige Tony Bennett, Barbra Streisand and now Petula Clark. "Some Enchanted Evening" isn't a Christmas song, and it has never been considered as such, however it is a previously unreleased "bonus track" and is featured on the release as such. Making it a "bonus" sets aside the recording from the set of Christmas songs - if it wasn't included on this release, there would be no platform for this recording to be issued or heard - it also works as it serves as the perfect companion song to "My Favourite Things" also written by Rodgers and Hammerstein. |
