Is that on the same line as the Piccadilly Circus tube station?

Dunno, mate. It's a few years since I was down that way. . . . .

Thank you, Tio. A track I associate with The Charlie Watts Quintet. Yes, the same Charlie Watts. He may be a Rolling Stone, but he's a jazz drummer at heart.
What a wonderful description.
I can almost hear the
BBC Announcer:-
"And now we present an interlude of music, played this evening by the Charlie Watts Quintet, with vocal accompaniment by Mr Michael Jagger."
A vocalist who has performed with the Charlie Watts Quintet, HP, is Bernard Fowler. Check this out.

I never did get this "8 to the bar" thing at all.
An 'idiot's guide' would be useful.
#It's about the rhythm, HP.
Three to the bar (a waltz) is one accentuated beat followed by two unaccentuated beats. (Although six-eight - 1-2-3- 4-5-6, sometimes known as a 'jazz waltz, is a bit similar.)
Four to the bar is one accented beat followed by three unaccented beats.
Eight to the bar is eight beats, the first of which is accentuated.
And then you get to the trickier measures such as Dave Brubeck's 'Blue Rondo a la Turk' which is 9/8, payed as 1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2-3-4.
Enjoy.

Thank you.
Where's the 'Bar' ?
And yes, I DO enjoy my music [I know damn all about it but I like a lot of it !]

When you find the bar, may I recommend you ask the bartender for the cocktail Blood, Sweat and Tears?
2 oz tequila blanco
1 oz chipotle honey syrup
.5 oz blood orange juice
.5 oz lime juice
Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker with ice, shake until chilled. Doubled strain into a chilled coupe. Garnish with a chipotle-sugar dusted strawberry.

For me, no one has matched Laura Nyro's original.
Until today I had never heard her music. I'm impressed, not only by her talent but also to the influence she had on groups that were my favorites while growing up.
.
I recognised the name, but never heard her music.
it's impressive.
I do have to admit though, discovering her originals is kind of like finding out a lot of books by Dr. Suess were just rewrites of Winnie the Pooh.

On the BBC Home news this evening; the Queen of Soul has left us.
She was suffering Pancreatic Cancer.
Kind of eerie that the Queen of Soul and King of Rock & Roll both died on the same date.
.
I thought the title 'King of Rock and Roll' ws given to Little Richard, who's now 85.
