Beat Route

on BBC Two England

The music-and-travel odyssey takes Jools Holland on a very personal journey to Chicago, seeking the last resting place of his boogie woogie heroes, the pianists Albert Ammons and Jimmy Yancey. On the way he meets Koko Taylor, the first lady of the blues, and Daniel Barenboim, conductor of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
