The hugely talented and funny James Morrison joins us for our Season 3 finale.

A musical polymath and multi instrumentalist, James is well known to many from opening the 2000 Olympic Games, playing in the world's finest venues and hosting Top Gear Australia.

This hugely enjoyable conversation ranges from what is was like playing alongside Dizzy Gillespie to being a jazz nut in a fast car. We also ask the really important questions including what is the definite jazz ride and why he has yet to play at the Rifle Volunteer pub in Watford?!

ENJOY!

James's album recommendations include:

Concert by the Sea by Erroll Garner (1955) released on Columbia
Night Train by Oscar Peterson (1963) released on Verve
The Greatest Trumpeter of Them All by Dizzy Gillespie (1958) released on Verve
