      Hello Johnny, and welcome aboard!

      You ask which CD’s to get first; well, my personal preference would definitely be the double album of "Live Performance" (avaialable via a link on this website!). Live Performance was always my favourite LP (if you know what they were) and when the CD came out last year it was a real treat to hear all the extra tracks! I think this is Jake at his best, even with the minor errors – well he was only human wasn’t he?

      Until a few years ago there was only one CD available and that had been produced in the early 1990s.

      Hope you’ve managed to have a good look round here. As a lurker you’ll be aware that it has flurries of busy-ness and spells of quiet, but there are lots of people popping by most days ;o)

      Anyone else got anything to offer?

      Pam

      Cheers Pam, thanks for that info. And I will be purchasing via the links on this site:)

          Thought it was time to quit lurking and register on the forum. Growing up in the 60’s and 70’s I can remember Jake’s original performances on the telly, which I suppose were a little twee in comparison to my own musical sensibilities, which by then had been channeled into punk and prog rock.

          However, with age I’ve been fortunate enough to find my musical tastes broadening. I caught the BBC4 specials and it brought everything back:) I now ‘get’ this fellow Yorkshiremans take on life, the subtle humour, and his music which doesn’t fit into any ‘pigeon-hole’ in terms of genre. Now then, what cds should I purchase first, maybe the live performances?
