Tim Rice's American Pie - Arizona

Sir Tim Rice continues to celebrate the musical heritage of the United States, reaching Arizona, the Grand Canyon State. This week's featured artists include Rex Allen, Linda Ronstadt, Bing Crosby, Charlie Mingus and Stevie Nicks. Tim has long been fascinated by the history and geography of America: "The sheer romanticism of the names of the fifty states is poetry to my ears and the opportunity to explore every state of the union through its music, musicians, composers, lyricists and performers is irresistible for me." "I hope each broadcast, through music old and new, familiar and unexpected, proves an enjoyable slice of American Pie, none quite like the forty-nine others.".
