Tony Christie

The Song Interpreter

Tony Christie , Ed. Chris Berry
A terraced house in South Yorkshire was the happy home of the young Anthony Fitzgerald, who was to make his mark in the 1970s with hits such as ‘Is This the Way to Amarillo’ and cement his legendary status with notable comebacks in the 21st century. In this memoir, he reflects on professional achievements, industry friends and collaborators and a precious family life.
