  • back again to watch this video and I still think it's one of the finest i've seen of Jake performing live. Will definitely keep coming back :-)

  • I think this song really embodies a philosophy of life - no matter what personal tragedies occur, you have to put them behind you, go out and grab life by the balls.

  • Nice work - remember his pieces on That's Life (oh God that makes me sound like a Mail reader), but his songs are sooooo good.

  • Who isn't partial to a salty kiss or two?

  • Cambridge Folk Festival on the 9th of September 1981.

  • @Glaznoz Hi where was the show ?? it sort of looks like a folk festival and what year was it ?.

  • What a great song, well performed in Jake's unique style. The lyrics are enjoyable too.

  • A matchless performance!!!!!

  • I was in the audience at that performance! Magic!

  • Unique. Great English hatter. Brilliant man.
