Bob Harris introduces a tribute to the late singer with archive sessions and interviews dating back to 1978 and including memorable appearances with Ken Bruce, Johnnie Walker and Matt Everitt.

Meat Loaf's bombastic rock operas catapulted him to the status of musical icon.

His breakthrough album, 'Bat Out Of Hell', is one of the best-selling albums of all time.

But beneath the public face of the hard-rocking extrovert was a man who professed to be a shy and retiring individual.

Off stage, he was actually a non-smoking family man, who'd never owned a motorbike and was 'constantly on a diet'.
