I am a stand up myself and I had the honour of bringing Jasper on stage tonight at the Blossomfield Club Solihull where he turned up as an unannounced guest to try out some new material! Half an hour of up to date, top quality stuff which blew the roof off ! A comics masterclass. Thanks Jasper and long may you continue! Ryan :-) @ryangough
Thackeray is truly a genius, but by the same token this is also fabulous. I like Carrott and on Carrott in Notts he certainly bigs up JT before this rendition. It's clear he held him in great esteem
Carrott always claimed that he didn't enjoy perfoming all that much. Just think what he'd have been like if he had!
this is a Jake Thackray tune, right? because carrot doesn't get it... seems to be doing a sad impression of something he once saw on a regional television show. Thackray lifts comic songs out of novelty, but this rendition is awful.
I used to listen to an LP that belonged to my parents called carrot in notts. Its this plus his wembly broad side, havanagila and basidy chelt. Brillience. yup and tupped them all again.

Jake Thakary is the better musician and songwriter. Jasper Carrot is the better comedian.
Arguments about which is better are really quite silly. Jake plays better guitar, but Jasper's arrangement brings out the humor better.
And it's still Jake's song.
