Bonus Episode - (Breakdown) The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
Listen now
Description
This Breakdown, which is also available on my YouTube channel, is a companion piece to Episode 13 with Adam Dorn. "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" was not a hit when it was released in 1969. Producer Joel Dorn warned Roberta Flack that her slow as molasses version might not go over well with the masses. And he was right -- until burgeoning director, Clint Eastwood plucked the song -- and it's singer -- from obscurity.
