Chris is joined by pianist James Pearson, to discuss his music and working life in the UK's most famous jazz club, with more famous name drops than the Jazz Junction has ever contended with!

In our series 2 finale, James, artistic director at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, recounts tales of jazz derring do including the appearances at the club of Lady Gaga, Kylie Minogue, Wynton Marsalis and the Rev Jesse Jackson. There's comparison of the geniuses of Erroll Garner, Thelonius Monk, Oscar Peterson and Bill Evans; celebration of the joy of 78 records; and great insights into recording jazz.

James's album recommendations include:

Night Train by Oscar Peterson (1963) released on Verve.
Concert by the Sea by Erroll Garner (1955) released on Columbia.
Live at the Village Vanguard by Bill Evans (1961) released on Riverside.
