Conversations: Art & Passions episodes

  • Singer Paul Kelly shares stories behind his songs in alphabetical order

    Over four nights in 2004 Paul Kelly performed a hundred of his songs in alphabetical order.

    On stage he told the stories behind the songs - of his family and friends, his years on the road, and recording his many albums.

    Paul put these stories together in his book - a memoir and songwriting masterclass melded together and named for one of his most beautiful and popular songs: How to Make Gravy, published by Penguin.
