Jake Thackray on BBC2 tonight



Late this evening (11.20 England, 11.30 Scotland, 11.50 Wales) BBC2 is showing Jake on the Box. This is a programme:
Exploring the life and work of Jake Thackray, the undervalued genius famous for his biting satire and understated irony. A rare example of a British singer-songwriter in the troubadour tradition, Thackray could be darkly vicious, but was also able to write haunting and romantic songs. His words and music have influenced a generation of musicians and writers.
There is more about Jake Thackray elsewhere on this blog.
