Jammin' with Corliss

Seems you can't move these days without stumbling over a Tales From The Woods event. Last night I tried out Keith's jam session at the Caxton in deepest Shadwell. There was some excellent boogie woogie piano playing from Mike J Clayton from Texas, and a bluesy slide guitar from a guy from Russia, but the highlight had to be Corliss Randall doing an over the top version of I Just Want To Make Love To You. Nearly everyone in the room was brought in at some stage and I've never seen Tony Papard look so scared as when she ran her fingers through his now grey hair. Truly a New Orleans bombshell, even if she has been in London for 30 years.
