Clough Stories - The Hit Record

In this exclusive interview, you’ll hear behind-the-scenes stories of what happened when Brian Clough and his players teamed up with pop group Paper Lace to make a hit record back in 1978.

The group’s lead singer, Phil Wright, recalls what happened in the studio when they recorded the iconic single ‘We’ve Got The Whole World In Our Hands’ which reached the Top 30 in the UK charts.

Plus, he describes the training session featured in the song’s accompanying video and meeting Cloughie himself. “We arrived at the City Ground in a chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce - I’m the first to get out and shake Cloughie’s hand,” recalls Phil.

There are also memories of the group’s rise to fame after appearing on the legendary talent show Opportunity Knocks before reaching No.1 with ‘Billy Don’t Be A Hero.’

It’s an episode packed with nostalgia and great stories. Phil and the group are still performing these days - more details on their website HERE.
