Jo makes JRR twice in June!


Earlier this month (June 2) Jo Harrop singing Leonard Cohen's Travellin' Light featured on Jazz Record Requests. Four weeks later, this afternoon's edition of JRR (June 30) includes a track from Jo's new album. The Path of a Tear, recorded in Los Angeles, is the latest chapter in Jo's burgeoning career, on this occasion working with top flight LA musicians. Join Alyn Shipton at four o'clock this afternoon (BBC Radio 3) to find out which track it is. Perhaps you'll know the person who requested it!  Russell
