Jools in lockdown

[Ayrshire Chris]

Watched last nights show, basically a dip into the archives with Christine and the Queens choosing clips from his past shows  such as Bowie, Janelle , Bjork . And a great live performance sent in by Laura Marling.  Quite enjoyed it 

and he didn’t once spoil someones performance by insisting to join in on the piano!

yeah, i enjoyed it. I think anchoring it around 1 person, with influential interludes worked well.... although he could maybe of introduced it with a performance from Christine herself...?

I've seen a couple of other excellent Laura Marling live at home YouTubes... the album sounds great.

You’ve sold me. If ever a program was meant to be watched on catch up it’s jools. Always a need to fast forward through his plinky plonky collaborations with the guests.

Watched this last night and enjoyed it more than I thought, especially for Christine’s great choice of old performances. 

Dizzee Rascal being interviewed next week and Hugh Laurie the week after who I’m not expecting to have such great choices, but open to be proven wrong. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Hugh Laurie's a jazz piano fiend so likely to plump for folk like Dr John and Allen Toussaint.

[Chawk]

enjoyed it a lot.

odd moment was Jools showing off his French dvd collection at the end.

Reckon if he could,  he would add a bit of plinky plonky all the way through Karma Police 

[Chawk]

aye

[guypjfreak]

Just wrong.. It should jools is locked up 

[Comfy Bean]

I know it’s an unpopular view on here but I’m good with Jools joining in on the keys.

Seen him a couple of times live, probably 20 and then 10 years ago. The obvious joy he gets from playing live has probably stuck with me.

Hopefully his Winter gigs go ahead. Got tickets for Glasgow, he’s playing two nights. Enjoyed his  pyramid performance in 2017.  And yes, his enthusiasm is really obvious!

I didn't watch this week's so I dunno but I'd love if dizzee's interview next week shed light on how he ended up with him collaborating with a don of slide guitar for his bonkers era shite.

Hugh Laurie tonight. Gonna be a bit plinky plonky I reckon.

[Ayrshire Chris]

Jools and Hugh are finishing the programme with that great Eskimo classic song

whale meat again. 

[MrZigster]

Groan.

I wonder if there is anyone else on the planet who has played with as many names as Jools Holland.has?

Can't find the ep with C&TQ, not on iPlayer? Just watching another ep. How cool is this Jacob Collier dude?

[MrZigster]

@Stokesy10 Can't help you with your first question. That's weird. I thought they kept everything up for ages these days.

Good question re JC (Were you asking a question or was that a statement?).  I had it on in the background. Was that something put together by just himself during lockdown? Or was there a huge amount of people and possibly a record company thing behind it?

I remember watching similar composite video shows on Youtube ages ago and being impressed. They were being put together by ten year olds. Is JC the same person whos stuff  was watching ages ago? Or is it just a rip off?

Given the right exposure it will go places no doubt.

Christine and Dizzy were awesomeness personified, Hugh not so much.

Given the amount of back catalogue this show has to play with, there's way too much chat and filler. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

They just played the Glastonbury ad 😀

[internetjef]

Are Chris packham and jools related? I was watching springwatch earlier and they  have similar mannerisms .

half expected him to whip a piano out even tho he was up a ladder looking at some birds nests ha 

[Skelts]

Looks good for tonight, Gregory Porter and Fontaines DC 👍

[MrZigster]

Enjoyed Jay-Zed. Glad I had subtitles on.

Fontaines rocked also.

[sildante]

Bloody fantastic.

Final episode this Friday and it's Guy Garvey, been quite enjoying these shows and would like them to continue, Joe Talbot would be an interesting guest.
