But my friend Steve Furst recommended a documentary on Radio 4 called The Tale of Jimmy Scott. I cannot re-recommend it enough. Extraordinary man, extraordinary voice and an utterly extraordinary story. I won’t spoil it for you. It’s on the BBC iPlayer so just sit back and listen to it. And if Steve hasn’t already started work on the film script, I think I might.
No, I’d never heard of him either.
