Episode description
After a short spell as a punk rocker, Limahl found fame with the band Kajagoogoo after responding to an advert in a music magazine in 1982, where the then named Art Noveau were looking for a new lead singer.
The following year he left the band – but quickly went onto find his own success as a solo artist with his hit “The Never Ending Story”.
His early ambitions, growing up in Wigan, were for a career as an actor and he even toured in production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat.
What then will he choose as his Inheritance Tracks...
Inherited: Move Over Darling by Doris Day Passed on: Four Brothers by Manhattan Transfer
Producers: Catherine Powell and Anna Bailey
