My guest is one of the UK’s finest, high-profile bass players, Dave Swift.
He joined Jools Holland and His Rhythm and Blues Orchestra in 1991 and his career, which expands beyond three decades, boasts a musician’s portfolio that seconds no other - playing with an array of renowned artists, from George Benson and Chaka Khan to Adele, BB King, Hall & Oates, Noel Gallagher, Paul McCartney and Paul Simon along with the main man that we're all here to talk about Paul Weller!
Paul has been on Later... with Jools Holland / Jools' Annual Hootenanny more than any other guest and many of his performances would be filed in the archive as iconic classics!
Here are just a few...
Paul Weller - Will It Go Round In Circles Jools Holland Hootenanny 1998
Dave Swift on Bass with Jools Holland backing Paul Weller "I Forgot to be your Lover"
Amy Winehouse and Paul Weller - Don't go to strangers (at Hootenanny 2006)
