The Talent that was to Blossom into a Star - Jon Vickers: Early Telecasts from Radio Canada review by KW

Very interesting insight into the early years of John Vickers career and the talent that was being carefully crafted that would see him conquer the worlds leading opera houses. I myself saw him do many of his signature roles at the Royal Opera House and the passion and commitment were hallmarks off his career. Also interesting to see Louis Quilico in some of the scenes who also followed John to sing in many of the worlds leading opera houses.
