Ian and Jackie giving a stunning evocative but funny performance telling the story of a Fifer returning to Fife for a Funeral. Well worth a listen if you don't already own it.

Andy
I've got the "Jackie Leven Said" album he did with Ian Rankin (a favourite author -- and I haven't only read the John Rebus Books ;) ) Is that the one you're thinking of?

Image

While I was looking for that pic I came across this:
"Jackie Leven Said: A Double CD Release Of Storytelling, Laughter And Music by Ian Rankin" which is also described as a hardback book.
Whatever it is, I've ordered it. :lol:

I'm sure it'll be a nice(?) surprise when it turns up. Hopefully, it'll be an actual book of the stories, and if it's got a couple of CDs tucked inside it? Bonus! For under six quid including postage I'm not going to argue.

Including the above, one album, as Sir Vincent Lone, and one as David St Field, I've got 14 of Jackie's albums. You might have guessed that I quite like his music.

After beating being unable to speak for nearly two years due to being assaulted and near strangled, his heroin addiction, and the booze, bloody cancer took him in the end.. Life definitely ain't fair.

Yeah that's the one, the first CD is Jackie and Ian chatting and then Ian tells the story interspersed with songs between "chapters," by Jackie. The second CD is Jackie again.

The man was a tremendous talent and most definitely completely underrated and undervalued, I love his voice tone, reminds me quite a lot of James Grant (ex love and money frontman and solo artist).

I have never counted but I must have in excess of 10 Jackie albums, hey if that book turns up as a book then give me a shout and I will order a copy although I suspect it may be the double cd. :epopc:
