Not really being a follower of jazz, although I knew of Johnny Dankworth’s fame I never knew he was married to Cleo Laine! I’ve also learnt from this that he wrote The Avengers and the Tomorrow’s World theme tunes.You live and learn.
Thanks Roger.
Well worth another listen:- Avenger's theme

Yeah, my first wife Luciana (Italian/Swiss) looked very much like Diana Rigg and her mannerisms were similar too... really!

I saw Cowboy Junkies at their place, The Stables near Milton Keynes.
Can't stand jazz, didn't like him and Cleo Laine is/was a bubble headed 'noodler'.
But - chac'un a son gout, as they say round these parts....
Be bop boop boop wop wop boop de boop boop de wop.
