Jools Holland
This is not the first time David has done the blues with Jools. Mica Paris created a trio with them and performed I Put A Spell on you all the way back in 2004 I think for the Teenage Cancer Trust event Jools put on at the Royal Albert Hall. I think…
Jools let slip that David was on his new album when wishing David a happy birthday back in March.
In the news announcement on Jools’ website it said, Jools Holland is proud to announce his new album PIANOLA. PIANO & FRIENDS. A loving tribute to the black and white keys, it celebrates the community and conviviality that the piano inspires and the spark of Jools’ deep love for music.
