'(This) is a project intrinsically dear to my heart and one that I have been developing with Wildheart Entertainment for over five years,' Martin said. 'I am just thrilled that PBS has joined us as our primetime broadcaster. 'On Record' affords me the opportunity to work again with so many of the artists I have worked with throughout my life and to tell a story that has never been told in such a comprehensive way."
