Cliff Richard

Cliff Richard is a British pop singer who grew up in London and first made his name in the late 1950s as one of the earliest English artists to play rock and roll, scoring his debut hit with 'Move It' in 1958. Over the following decades he broadened his sound to include pop ballads, gospel, and adult contemporary music, building one of the longest chart careers in UK history. He has recorded dozens of studio albums and earned more number one singles in Britain than almost any other solo artist.
