Episode Synopsis

Richard Hewson has orchestrated for artists and bands including Paul McCartney, The Beatles, Diana Ross, a James Bond movie theme, Supertramp and Art Garfunkel. With one piano and as he describes it, an ancient four track, in 1977 he created top 10 international cult hit, THE CRUNCH which he wrote, produced and played as The Rah Band, an excuse he says; "Just to do my own tunes." This is the story of Richard Hewson.
Coming up in the final part, Richard talks about the highlight of his music career, he shares how studios have changed, the financial frustration of earning a living through arranging, how one of the most famous James Bond movie themes could have been so different if it weren't for the support of producer Richard Perry and there is a hint of projects to come.
