    Some good videos on youtube of him dueting with Jools Holland, he is quite good, his blues album( Didn't it Rain) is great.

    I actually heard it on an flight too turkey, the chairs had the in the back with movies, music and games I came across his name and although it's not what I'd usually go for I have to say, it is good, you can probably find him on YouTube too

    Went to see him (was actually dragged along to see him!!) in London last year along with his Copper Bottom Band.

    Frankly it was disgusting........


    .......that someone should be so talented. First comedy, then the acting and then it turns out he does a mean live jazz and blues gig! It's a bit weird to watch an Oxford educated middle-class Englishman play blues piano and doing a decent turn on vocals.

    I doubt I would've gone if it was someone whose name I didn't recognise but it was a surprisingly enjoyable evening. I'd say the album is worth a listen to and if he came here I'd go see him again as long as the venue was one of the smaller ones and the tickets weren't off the wall in terms of price.

    I like the songs he sings in Jeeves and Wooster.

    My husband bought his first album a few years ago and we really enjoyed it. The second one is good as well. I find them just real easy listening. Would definitely go to see him if he was playing here but he doesn't seem to come over.
