I had the very great pleasure of interviewing Johnny Harris last autumn, and the piece I wrote has gone online today:

Given who I was writing the article for I stuck mostly to the Welsh aspects of his career, though obviously I had a long list of Vinyl Vulture-type questions up my sleeve to ask as well if the need arose
. One I did manage to ask was about Petula Clark's version of 'Rain'. Unfortunately (if understandably) he didn't have a particularly clear memory of it, but he did say that he thought it had been Tony Hatch's suggestion to do the song in the first place.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the piece. I can confirm that he is a lovely man.
