Songbook interview - Albert Hammond

Sky Arts (Sky channel 267) broadcast an exclusive interview with Albert Hammond on Thursday 12 February.

In the programme, Hammond revealed how Tina Turner’s hit I Don’t Want To Lose You came to life.

Steve Porter, chief executive PRS for Music commented: 'Although the singer often takes the limelight it is the writer at the heart of every great song. Songbook profiles some of the best of these, the men and women behind the songs that have shaped the UK music scene and done so much to place music at the heart of our cultural life. PRS for Music represents 60,000 creators and we hope that this series will help educate and inspire the creators of tomorrow's music'.
