The
iconic
Petula
Clark
started
her
7
decade
career
as
a
10
year
old
during
World
War
II.
Her
impressions
of
Carmen
Miranda
and
Sophie
Tucker
were
broadcast
by
the
BBC
to
the
British
Empire
and
her
rendition
of
Mighty
Like
A
Rose
in
the
same
show
grabbed
the
attention
of
servicemen
abroad.
In
1946
British
television
was
being
re-launched
after
the
war
and
Petula
was
chosen
to
appear
on
the
BBC
demonstration
film
performing
Miser,
Miser.
This
film
appeared
on
British
TV
every
morning
for
over
a
year.
Petula
went
on
to
star
in
British
films
throughout
the
1950s
while
at
the
same
time
achieving
great
success
as
a
recording
and
broadcasting
star
in
Britain.
From
here
she
continued
her
success
in
France
and
America
in
a
glittering
career
encompassing
all
aspects
of
show
business
-
pop
music,
stage,
Hollywood
and
television.
Early
on
in
her
career
Petula
found
working
with
Joe
Henderson
as
her
accompanist
a
happy
experience
and
so
a
musical
partnership
was
established.
Petula’s
on-screen
film
and
TV
appearances,
recordings
and
radio
broadcasts
nearly
always
included
Joe
either
as
accompanist
or
composer.
Throughout
the
1950s
they
toured
the
United
Kingdom
together
and
in
1959
presented
their
own
radio
series
for
the
BBC
entitled
“Pet
and
Mr.
Piano”.
This
carefully
assembled
collection
of
lovingly
restored
songs
bring
together
two
remarkable
talents
and
features
Petula’s
earliest
known
BBC
broadcast
from
1942,
film
songs
from
Petula’s
early
career
and
other
rare
radio
broadcasts;
and
Joe’s
first
recordings
plus
two
of
his
British
chart
entries,
Sing
It
With
Joe
and
Sing
It
Again
With
Joe
-
a
sing-along
medley
of
popular
standards
featuring
amongst
others
the
voices
of
Petula
and
another
British
favourite
songbird
Alma
Cogan.
The
final
track
Golden
Guinea
was
Petula’s
first
published
composition
performed
here
by
Joe.
