Episode 5 Later... with Jools Holland

Oh, yes! I'm delighted to be here for one more toast surrounded by

amazing musicians. We start with # A writ into the night came

# My horse had worked the fields # When I walk inside the dark

# We waste time on blame # And stop looking

# You carry on as if I don't love you

# And so we find the way to lie

# To cover hard I have a doubt

# The room's full eyes are empty

# Like your letters never sent me

# Your words are like a lasso

# You're an instrumental tune

# Whoa whoa whoa oh

# Whoa whoa whoa oh

# Whoa whoa whoa oh

Bon Ivor! We'll be hearing more from that wonderful man later. Now,

a man at the piano, who is an amazing pianist, who is an amazing

singer. He is a legend. A man who was one of the original Rat Pack,

Mr Buddy Greco! Good to see you. Good to see you. Now, you've got

this record out here at the Sands and it is live, what year due

record this record? I made this in 1967, the week after Frank Sinatra

did his with Basie. Half of that band is on that album. It was an

absolute joy. For the people in the audience, they can't see it,

there's a photograph for you here with Frank Sinatra, cuddling you.

You were part... To my cheek. Martin. You were the Rat Pack with

them. They were good friends of mine. Any time they would be

working in the same hotel I was working in, I would get a call from

Mr Sinatra and he would ask me to join them. There's Benny Goodman.

You started off as pianist and arranger with him. That's right.

That's an amaigz start to get. started out as a classical pianist.

When Benny Goodman asked me to join him, it was terrific. What year

were you with Benny Goodman? 1948, 49 and 50. I was 11! Exactly. You

have a lovely picture here of you and Marilyn Monroe. Yes. Were you

great friends? Very good friends. Cuddling you there. A little bit.

That was taken when I was, to the right of her was Frank Sinatra

reading a book or something. It was a wonderful day. Sammy Davis Junior

does the sleeve note. Yes, he did. We have footage here, let's have a

look and see when it is. # The more I see you

# The more I want you # Somehow this feeling just grows

and grows # With every summer, I just become

more mad about you # Because without you and so I goes

# I'm lost without you and so it goes

# Baby, baby baby, baby, can you imagine, how much I love you?

# I love you # APPLAUSE

Absolutely great. You notice that's when I had black hair. My hair was

very dark. You have just celebrated your 85th birthday. You're playing

better than ever. You're looking like a man of 50, what's the key to

it? Can I tell them? It's really booze, brauds... No, I can't do

that. Trying to be very happy with yourself and get very involved in

your music and try to be a nice person and create as much as you

can really. You're touring with a big band soon around Britain as

well. Right now I've been working with the quartet. I want to start,

like I originally started, working with a big band. We're doing that,

I think, in Streatham, November 24 and 25. Thank you for mentioning

that. I hope we'll come and hear you. You're doing Lady Is A Tramp

in a moment. A lot of people are aware, we know he's a lovely voice.

But you're like a great -- you are one of the greatest peenists. Can

Help him to recovery. Ben L'Oncle Soul! The marvellous French sound

of soul. Before that we enjoyed Feist. Now I'm joined by Pauline

Black. Lovely to see you. Lovely to see you, my darling. Welcome to our

show and our worldment -- world. Now you've got this design -- black

by design, your autobiography, marvellous book. I was moved by

some of the things I started to see. Why did you decide toe write a book

of your life now? I think basically because it was one of those things

where I've always wanted to look at what identity means and

particularly what identity meant to me at a time when multiculturalism

is a thing being talked about. I was a mixed race child. I was

brought up when Britain still had colonies in a white family. I kind

of saw things from the other way round. My parents really brought me

up as a little white girl N a way, I designed myself black. When Two

Tone came along, the black and white image, playing music together,

it was a perfect fit for me. And I just felt that was a story that was,

I wanted to write and I wanted to see where it led. Was it enjoyable

writing a book? Surprisingly, yes it was, very enjoyable. It led to

having a bit of a renaissance and writing an album as well. Which is

very G you were the queen of Two Tone. Who were the people you were

listening to that you wanted to sound like when you first aware of

music? Probably Milly Small when she brought out My Boy Lollipop.

This was further on, probably only a couple of years before the Two

Tone thing got together, I saw Polystyrene on Top of the Pops and

thinking "I want to be her!" We've got something of Selecta here now

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 56 seconds

Yes, marvellous! And having written your book, if you could, if you had

met the ten-year-old you, and were going to give yourself some advice,

what would you tell yourself to do? I would tell myself to do pretty

much the same that I did. I don't really regret anything I did. It's

been a learning process. It's all kind of carrying on in that way.

I'm just pleased to be alive and be in a studio like this with other

musicians, still doing those kind of things. Just seeing where it

goes. You have also are an award winning actress. Is it something

you've enjoyed? Do you enjoy that as much as music? I always enjoyed

being an actress, particularly the Billy Holiday I won an award for.

You get past a certain age, ladies of a certain age, I'm a lady of a

certain age these days, the parts aren't as many as they are. For

black actresses in this country of a certain age, there are less and

less parts. Can you only play people's mothers so many times. I

like music. I've always liked music. Are Selecta still performing?

are indeed. This is the new album. This is as rare as hen's teeth, a

considered made in Britain. And a tour next year as well in March.

That will be in a record show, that's as rare as hen's teeth as

well. Thanks very much for joining us, Pauline Black, thank you. Black

By Design is in the shops. Let's enjoy the wonderful talent of a

superb new artist, whom we enjoyed # I kinda know this other guy

# Not a coincidence he left me # Was ready to love me

# So is it such a problem # As long as he does

# I'm glad that it's just my heart that he stole

# And left my dignity alone

# When in Rome we landed our first kiss

# I slurred my words but he pretended not to notice

# And then he sat down to play

# My heart sang a symphony!

# So far so swimmingly

# I'm glad I got out to find my fish in that sea

# We've come so far

# So who gives a damn about the ages we are?!

# Ooh oooh oooh

# So is it such a problem if he's old?

# As long as he does whatever he's told!

# I'm glad that it's just my heart that he stole

# And left my dignity alone

# So is it such a problem if he's old?

# As long as he does whatever he's told!
