Any relationship with him and the group Redbone who released Witch Queen Of New Orleans?

Do a Google search on him, his web page lists all of his albums.

A man with an unusual, and laid back way of performing.

Funnily enough, wondering through the satellite channels, I cought up with him performing Champagne Charlie on a repeat of the original Jack Dee tv series (from the Bohemia Club)

I found it intrigueig enough to investigate more.

He is not going to be to everybodies taste, described as more "new vaudeville" his band has euphonium, banjo, double bass.

Think Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Bnd, without the comedy.

Most famous track, for those that remember, was So Relax which was used extensively on the British Rail / Intercity adverts (from his album Sugar).
