Editorial Review:
Fans of BBC2's late-night show Later ... with Jools Holland will already know what to expect from this lavish double CD spread. Around two thirds of the acts featured on this release had their TV debuts on the show, which sees veteran muso Jools Holland present the best of up and coming and established pop artists in a wide range of genres from hip hop and world to jazz, blues and rock. A quick look at the tracklisting reveals the caliber of artists to have appeared on the show (which has been running non-stop since 1992): Amy Winehouse, Kasabian, Lily Allen, The White Stripes, Keane, James Blunt, The Flaming Lips, Lily Allen, Muse and Kings Of Leon are some of the bigger names, while Richard Hawley, Estelle, Jose Gonzales, Kano, Primal Scream, CSS and Hard Fi radiate a more alternative, under-the-radar appeal. The live versions of Winehouse's "Tears Dry on Their Own," Hawley's "Valentine" Gnarls Barley's "Crazy," Seasick Steve's "Doghouse Blues" and Kasabian's "Empire" are just a few of the reasons Jools fans will want to own this enchanting profile of contemporary pop. --Danny McKenna

Later and Live with Jools Holland Cool album rammed with soooo many artistes that I love! Pretty much all the big songs of the last two or so years or so but I kind of wish there was more of Jools Holland himself... That aside, the track that stands out above the rest has to be Amy Winehouse's `Tears Dry On their Own'. It's down right brilliant and probably the best recording of her live out there at the moment. Kasabien and White Stripes are also totally cool with `Empire' and `My Doorbell' utterly rocking my face!
