Barry Manilow presents a series looking at the art of songwriting.

This week Barry features one of his favourite shows of all time 'The Grass Harp', which starred the great Barbara Cook but lasted for just seven performances; 'Hot Chocolates' a musical that starred Louis Armstrong; and Jerry Herman's first breakthrough show that is rarely even talked about today, in spite of the fact that it led to 'Hello Dolly' - 'Milk and Honey'.
