Billy J Kramer

Simon Mayo talks to Billy J Kramer about his first UK tour in 20 years and his new autobiographical studio album I Won the Fight.

Original Merseybeat star Billy J Kramer talks about his first UK tour in 20 years, and his new autobiographical studio album, 'I Won The Fight.'

Kramer was one of the original stars of the Merseybeat scene and 2015 sees him celebrate his 50th year in the business. Kramer was a key figure in that period of music history; managed by Brian Epstein, it was John Lennon who suggested the "J" in his name.

Plus there's the usual Travel, Business and Sport with the team. And our very own Anneka Rice gives her confession to the caring collective - but will they forgive?
