Our guest today was Italian singer Toni Dalli. Toni rose from the slums of Pescara in Italy to topping the bill at the London Palladium and in Hollywood, while helping to keep his seven younger brothers and sisters from starvation by his singing talent – a great performer and a wonderful guy to talk to.
We also played out interviews taken at the Heritage Foundation lunch held in Eric’s honour at the Marriott Hotel in Regent’s Park on Sunday.
