Managed to catch a couple of numbers from Jeremy Sassoon streamed from his flat via Manchester's Matt & Phred's F/b page wearing a shirt he may have borrowed from our Steve T, Jeremy sang and played blues piano. Jon Cleary's Frenchman St. Blues and Ray Charles' What'd I Say? whetted my appetite for more but I'd left it too late.
