Pictures from Porretta

Here is a selection of photos taken at the Porretta Soul festival - some of me with the stars followed by some action shots. First, here is the wonderful Toni Green. The Wiggins brothers - Spencer on the left and Percy on the right.

Oscar Toney Jr and me on the steps of the Hotel Helvetia.

J Blackfoot and me.

Here's Oscar Toney Jr on stage (before going walkabout in the audience) on the first night.

Solomon Burke on his throne on Saturday evening.
