Don't know if anyone caught this on Friday's 'Later'?

CB totally blew me away - what a performer, and what great songs. I'll admit they are quite 'retro' in their style, but seeing as CB is of a certain vintage, he's got conviction.

Compared to the rest of the show, he was showing it how it's supposed to be done - bit like R. Kelly a couple of years back...awesome!

I saw it and he was great , and it was interesting to see Suede again and all the other acts were worth seeing too , I thought . I also remember R Kelly stealing the show a couple of years back , and I think he is just about the most interesting songwriter and performer in the whole Soul/ R&B genre at the moment .

That first clip is proof that a P-bass can do no wrong.

I hope he fined the brass boys a few quid of their wages, though...

I didn't see 'Later...' but I've got two of his albums that I like a lot.

Totally! I once read RK described as this generations Marvin Gaye, and I really believe that as well.

Will be buying the MP3's of CB's albums tomorrow....very impressed.
