With over 40 million records sold, and a vast collection of hits on both sides of the Atlantic to his name, he remains one of the most successful solo artists to have ever emerged from Britain.

To celebrate, Rick kicks off our open-air music event, live on the Southbank, this Friday, 8th July, on Good Morning Britain.

Please join us for this free and live special from 6.45am on Friday morning. The show runs until 8.30am so if you would like to swing by on your way to work, or make a special trip to join us, we'd love to see you there!
