With Richard Thompson & Crowded House appearing, Friday's show could be Fabregas, Err Fabulous (same thing really) Big Grin

Show Details

Joining Jools in the studio this week are Australia's Crowded House, led by Neil Finn, with tracks from their recent album, Time On Earth.

Former Moloko star Roisin Murphy performs numbers from her current album, Overpowered - a sharp package of electronic soul stitched together with crisp beats and her blistering vocals.

Also in the room is one of Britain's most respected singer-songwriters, Richard Thompson. Back in the 60s he founded and led Fairport Convention. Now, 40 years later, he is releasing his latest album, Sweet Warrior.

Making their television debut are Battles, an experimental/progressive four-piece band from New York City. Their debut album, Mirrored, has been widely acclaimed as one of the albums of the year.

Making up the bill are R&B/soul singer from South Carolina, Angie Stone and Chicago jazz vocalist Kurt Elling. Chatting at the piano will be REM front-man Michael Stipe and director/photographer Anton Corbijn.

Haven't watched Later for a while, but that's a very impressive line up - thanks for the info.

Going to see Crowded House at the Royal Albert Hall next month. Saw them in Hyde park (supporting Peter Gabriel) on a wet Saturday in the summer and we were impressed.

later...has introduced me to almost as much great music as the 'what are you listening to' thread on this website.

I would like to highlight Norma Waterson's performance in memory.
