This Jake Thackray masterpiece about fame rivals the writing of his hero and friend, Georges Brassens. Astonishing to think that it remained unreleased for almost 30 years. youtu.be/U-gcwWYx4Xc?fe…

This has got me blushing. The full delights of Playing with Nadine are currently only available on CD, but you can hear some of the songs on paulthompsonmusic.co.uk.

If you're a fan of #JakeThackray and frankly who isn't, you will seriously enjoy this album. Paul's played here twice now and is the closest thing to hearing the great man himself. Stream it now, folks.
