Expresso Bongo
Fast-talking promoter Laurence Harvey thinks he's found the next teen singing sensation when he spies bongo-playing troubadour Cliff Richard (in a role the now knighted and born-again pop icon would probably prefer to forget) in a Soho coffeehouse. Join them on the rocky road to stardom in this classic British rock-and-roll music-biz satire that also stars Sylvia Syms and Yolonde Dolan. Songs include 'Bongo Blues', 'Love', and 'A Voice in the Wilderness'.
