Georgina Jackson joins us for a very energised chat about jazz life in Watford and on the high seas!

There's chat about flugel horns, making it in a big band, combining trumpeting and singing, leading your own band and ultimately enjoying what you do.

There's another tremendous top ten quiz challenge, fantasy house band review (sorry James Morrison - it was her, not me!) and insights into her career and influences.

Georgina's Top 3 Album recommendations include:

It Might As Well Be Swing by Frank Sinatra & Count Basie (1964) released on Reprise
The Complete Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong on Verve (originally released 1956-58) released on Verve in 1997
Here's to Life by Shirley Horn (1992) released on Verve
