For a presenter that is so far up his own Rs, you have to hand it to the Jools Live programme.

Dutch group Caro Emerald were great (biggest melodeon I've ever seen). Gabriel Bruce is probably going to become a British Leonard Cohen. There are some great musicians on there.

Also some second rate loud pretenders like Johnny Marr who is just a talentless poser, (it's all been done before, John.... better) and Noah and the Whale who are not only scripturally wrong, but also repetitively boring. I guess dad has money or is a mason or something.

But I rate Boonie Raitt. Fabulous performance. Blew all the others into the background. Fantastic for a 63 year old and quite incredible on bottleneck lead guitar. Respect Bonnie. I'm yours any time you want me.

But then that is just my opinion.
