Mozart Beethoven Tchaikosvsky Paul Downes Joe Satriani Jimi Hendrix Jeff Beck Led Zeppelin Les Volees des Castors Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain Blind Boys of Alabama R L Burnside Chumbawumba - "English Rebel Songs" Dandy Warhols Mary Flowers - Delta Blues Ben Waters - Boogie Woogie piano Jeff Buckley Antonio Forcione - Latin Jazz guitarist John Lee Hooker, Howling Wolf et al Carnival Collective - UK's largest(?)Samba-percussion and Brass ensemble The Clash (and live folk music .. the stuff delivered with a bit of passion and verve) Well, (tongue in cheek)thank god it's not "Mummy's money"!
