Fran Landesman by Colin Gilbert, collaborating with the Landesman family
Frans' lyrics have been featured in songs by well-known singers and composers such as Shirley Bassey, Georgie Fame, Bob Dorough, Peter-Hugo Day, John Simon, Miles Landesman, Simon Wallace, Simon Lawrence, Perry Benson, Jason McAuliffe, Clive Powell, Tommy Wolf and of course, yours truly Colin Gilbert.
