The show opens with a brief tribute to the late Roy Ayers and a special moment from my 1990 interview for BBC Essex with Roy during his first residency at Ronnie Scott's. In a jovial mood, he recalls the time he "felt like a Beatle"—a wild night at the Hammersmith Odeon, London, in 1978 when the crowd rushed the stage. Check out this hilarious clip.
