Listening to that voice for the first time, I knew that radio could never submerge it, camouflage it or confuse it for anybody else. That voice coming out of that radio would be immediately identifiable throughout the ages." This promises to be a unique evening of beautiful music - starring Kerry on vocals and accompanied by the supremely talented pianist, Mark Busell.
