Swinging The Blues Dancing The Ska - Jools Holland & His Rhythm 'n' Blues Orchestra

The blues is most definately a feeling!

Advantages: Great variety-differen side of Jools
Disadvantages: some people may think it's too different?

Hey there Ciao! I'm going to review a CD of one of my favourite artists, the great Jools Holland. I'm sure all of you have heard of him somehow, as he has got himself everywhere at all times of the year; Later with Jools Holland, the Hootenanny at New Year, he was in the band Squeeze, and he did radio work, and countless gigs with his band, The Rhythm and Blues Orchestra. And it's the CD he did with them that I'm going to review! And it costs £11.99 if you're buying it new from www.amazon.co.uk, but you can get it for as little for £4 second hand!

I currently drive a 1996 Landrover Discovery with the correct connections so the most complicated procedure is fixing the microphone, again supplied with the kit. At this stage it is probable useful to point out that ...

Jools Holland - always at his best.

Advantages: See text.

I would just like to write a review on Jools Holland Best of Friends, a CD with a DVD bonus pack on the king of rhythm and blues. We all know of him from his specials at New Year, along with the numerous shows that he does during the year.

Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra - Tuxedo Junction. 2. Lulu - Where have all the good guys gone? 3. Chrissie Hynde - Out of this world. 4. Edwin Starr - Snowflake Boogie (2007 Remix). 5. Norah Jones - In the dark. 6. George Harrison - Horse to the water (2007 Remix). 7. Ruby Turner - To love a chhild. 8. Prince Buster - Enjoy Yourself. 9. Sterophonics - First time ever I saw your face ...
