Just Jack - Embers (acoustic)

Just Jack has been over at Maida Vale studios this morning doing the whole "here's my new single and a cover version we knocked together at the last minute" thing.

It's easy to be cynical about Radio One's Live Lounge concept now that it's been copied by every radio station under the sun - but those BBC engineers are the best in the business, which lifts these session tracks above the ordinary.

In this instance, Jack makes a decent fist of recreating Embers, his multi-tracked overdub symphony, in a live setting (they cheated a bit with a sequencer for the handclaps, though). The cover, of TI's Live Your Life, is also acceptable.

The videos will no doubt be available on Radio One's Live Lounge page later today.
