First up is @whisperingbob - keep your eyes peeled for more videos of his own #ShoeboxStory very soon. A post shared by Shoebox Story (@shoeboxstory) on Aug 25, 2020 at 4:03am PDT Shoebox StoryDevised by Jude Palmer and Bob HarrisAnnouncing a forthcoming and ongoing project to document and showcase stories and anecdotes - from Bob and many others - inspired by the objects, mementoes and items that we all keep and treasure.In this short introductory clip Bob explains why a seemingly unassuming champagne cork retains tremendous importance and significance for him many years after he was given it.Visit Jude’s site: thisisjude.uk Here’s a super video interview Bob conducted with Lyric Magazine’s James Daykin - who asked Bob about the soon-to-be-released star-studded #StandByMe charity single. Radio 1 Breakfast presenter Greg James grew up with Bob’s famous whispering voice coming out of the radios at home, as his father Alan has been a fan from Bob’s first broadcast on Radio 1 on August 19th 1970 and his television career on The Old Grey Whistle Test, right through to Bob’s current work on Radio 2. They are firm friends through a love of cricket and music and have often attended gigs together with their families.Greg talks in depth to Bob about his life, influences and passions and constant search for the next big thing. “How can you not form a tight bond with the man who introduced you to the classiest singer songwriters, (from Neil Young to the young Elton and Jackson Browne) a man who then sells you country, with a passion so powerful you’d reckon one of the four mothers of his eight children would be called Tammy or Shania, and at least one of the kids would have a hyphen in their first name?” “Whispering” Bob Harris has partnered with Absolute Label Services for a new record label as part of his Under The Apple Tree brand.The deal coincides with the celebrations for Bob Harris’ 50 years on the BBC, including a repeat of the special tribute to The Old Grey Whistle Test. Harris currently has a country music show on Radio 2. 19 August 2020: 60 years after it was first recorded, Ben E King’s iconic ‘Stand By Me’ is being re-recorded for a very special release. Hosted by Bob Harris, this live studio show features music, special guests and rare archive to mark 30 years since the legendary series was last broadcast. Featuring performances from Peter Frampton, Richard Thompson, and Albert Lee among others. It has taken more than a year of collaboration to reach this moment and we are all thrilled with the results. And this is just the beginning. Over the next few months the site will grow as we pour more and more information online for you to explore and enjoy. Bob was delighted to be cast in Tom Harper’s brilliant film “Wild Rose” alongside Julie Walters and the film’s magnificent star Jessie Buckley. Bob was Kirsty Young’s guest on the iconic BBC Radio 4 show in early 2014. His picks included Robert Plant, Neil Young and of course his all time favourite pick, Ben E. King’s “Stand By Me”. To this day, I apply the template of ‘The Perfumed Garden' to every show I do. I have been proud to always acknowledge him as my broadcasting mentor. As he did with so many, John was responsible for getting me started and setting the standard to which I try to aspire. I never even gave a thought to the fact that he would not be here anymore.
