We've been very quiet on the video scene recently, so I decided it was time to highlight the king - of pop, rock, folk, blues, rhythm and blues, gospel - a true all-rounder who is still going strong at 63.

This is one of the tracks from possibly the best album compilation of the last twenty years - Yo Frankie. This one is called King of the New York Streets.

I'm totally biased. I used to have a standing order at Mrs Kovary's in Cockermouth for every new record he brought out. I've been a fan for over 50 years. One of my three remaining ambitions before I bite the bullet is to see the great man live in concert. Maryport Blues Festival committee could help that along by booking him to headling a Festival in the not too distant future.

In the meantime sit back and enjoy a true artist at work. More to come.
