Re: Trifle
Tinned custard is nicer than home-made, especially cold and straight out of the tin. I want trifle now. Oh NO! Tinned custard is vile, as is most ready-made, except for the supermarkets' premium fresh custard, which is yummy, but a bit extravagant in a trifle. Home made, made with full cream, or at...

Following up Davy Graham from the Little Gems thread. He played folk, classical and jazz - there's an interesting version of Sonny Rollins' Don't Stop The Carnival, which most people know by the Alan Price hit, but there's no youtube video, so instead here's his lead on Art Blakey's Moanin' https://...

Re: Covers
Posted this on the board before Ground Zero but needs to be heard again. It's a fine example of doing a cover and putting your own style on it while keeping the essence of the original.

Re: Jeremy Vine
Sorry, I can't remember what the title of this thread was on the old board.... However, the daughter of a friend is playing a live session on his show today at 1.30.
