Jools & his R'n'B Orchestra and Ruby Turner - St Louis Blues (Later With Jools Holland, Nov 14 2008)

This week, Jools and his Rhythm and Blues orchestra are joined by the queen of British soul herself, Ruby Turner, for a rendition of Bessie Smith classic 'St Louis Blues'
To help celebrate the 30th anniversary of ‘Later... With Jools Holland’, we have unearthed some of Jools’ most iconic performances over the years, as well of some of his favourites to mark the big event. With some very specials guests as well as solo pieces, we set off for a wonderful trip down memory lane.
