Once in a while a voice comes along that is so extraordinary and magical it touches people's lives in a deeply personal way. When Terry Wogan played Eva Cassidy's version of 'Over the Rainbow' on his Radio Two programme, millions of listeners had the same reaction 'who is this amazing singer. Eva Cassidy's story is as astonishing as her voice. In 1996 she died of cancer at the age of 33, virtually unknown outside the Washington area where she grew up and performed. It was not until four years later that her talent was recognised and her records began to sell in their millions. Her story is now told for the first time by her parents, family and friends. 20.
