This is the second of maybe three podcasts based on interviews I did in late 2022 and early 2023 about my book Richard Harris: Raising Hell and Reaching for Heaven - the first hardback print run of which is nearly sold out I am happy to say
Here is a half-hour chat - minus music which I can't use for copyright reasons - I had with the ever-effusive Marty Whelan, a legend in Irish broadcasting who works for RTE, a station I worked for between 1989 and 2018. Looked at from another angle, you could say this is two Richard Harris and Jimmy Webb fans chatting as they would over a pint in a pub. I thank Marty. We had great fun that day.
