This week on his BBC Radio 2 show, Jamie Cullum chats to seminal jazz vocalist Mark Murphy, who has been embraced in musical realms such as acid jazz and modern dance music. They speak about Mark's upbringing in a family of singers and how he was first turned on to jazz through the music of Art Tatum.
As one of the most inventive lyricists of instrumental standards, the pair discuss Mark's process for putting lyrics to songs. You can listen to the show on BBC iPlayer until 12th June.
