Cliff Richard Unleashed and Uncensored 1989. "The best interview I ever gave," he said. It remains his most provocative interview
Sadly when this interview was published in an Irish magazine it hit the headlines in every newspaper in the UK simply because of one single, albeit staggeringly revealing, comment Cliff made about his love life - that will be Part 2 of this Podcast - but he also was equally forthcoming when it came to subjects he rarely discussed in public, such as his anger at doctors after the death of his father, his need, after that for "father figures," the bisexual appeal of his music, feminism, working mothers, Margaret Thatcher and the claim that "evil is" the "essence" of who he says he is. The fact that one day after doing this interview in Dublin Cliff told friends in London, "It was the best I ever did" proves that, whatever you may think about his music, Cliff Richard had no problem being pushed to the utmost on even the most challenging questions. Part 2 will follow in a few weeks.
