Songwriter and Producer, Ellie Greenwich. She co-wrote some of the most popular songs of the early 1960's for the girl groups produced by Phil Spector: songs like "Leader of the Pack" and "River Deep, Mountain High". She got her start out of the Brill Building with the songwriting team of Lieber and Stoller. In the 1980's, when she was writing songs for Cyndi Lauper and Irene Cara, she performed some of her hits in a Broadway Review called "Leader of the Pack." (Rebroadcast from 1986).

In the 1960s, King wrote hit songs like "Up on the Roof" and "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?" But in the 70s, she achieved lasting fame with songs like "Natural Woman" and her album "Tapestry," which was the best-selling album of the decade. Terry spoke to her in 1989. (Rebroadcast.)

Rock and roll songwriting team Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. They're responsible for many of the greatest hits in rock history, among them "Hound Dog," "Yakity Yak," and "Stand By Me." Rhino records has a collection of their songs, called "There's A Riot Goin' On." (Rebroadcast from December 19, 1991).
