Tony Christie records an album of songs written by bands from his home city of Sheffield.

The 60-something singer, who is famous for American-sounding numbers including Is This The Way To Amarillo?, was the steel city's most-celebrated musician way before the Arctic Monkeys - before even Pulp and The Human League.

He has teamed up with the former Pulp guitarist Richard Hawley, who has produced the album Made in Sheffield.
