Ken Clarke MP profiles great jazz musicians of the 20th Century.

Fats Waller is most familiar to some as a comic singer, but he was also a skilled jazz pianist. His father had wanted him to follow in his footsteps and become a minister. But the keyboard skills that Fats learned while playing the organ at church services were instead transferred to theatres and cabaret clubs, where he accompanied the likes of Bessie Smith as well as playing his own solos.

Ken is joined by singer Gwyneth Herbert, who talks about her love of Waller's music.
