BBC Radio 2 - The Jazz Show with Jamie Cullum, Van Morrison and Joey DeFrancesco

Jamie Cullum interviews and performs with Van Morrison and Joey DeFrancesco.

Jamie Cullum plays an hour of his favourite jazz, ranging from its heritage to its future.

This week, Jamie visits legendary singer and songwriter Van Morrison and Hall Of Fame organist Joey DeFrancesco during their run of intimate dates at Subterania in West London. 

Van's fascination with jazz runs deep and was born out of him listening to his father's extensive record collection. Joey comes from a long line of jazz musicians; his father was also an organist who played with the likes of Jimmy Smith. 

Jamie interviews them on their latest collaboration album You're Driving Me Crazy and chats to them both about their incredible careers. They also perform tracks from the album with Jamie joining them on vocals for the final song.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
