Lucky enough to hear Black Top's gig at @CamJazzFest on 15 November - although wine, earlier in the day, did mean that they initially 'tested my head' :

An amazingly compelling array and arrangement of sounds (and colours), being designed and curated as one listens and looks ! https://t.co/JxRWu5YEOH

However, if De Niro wanted away from Dirty Grandpa (2016) and back to Goodfellas (1990), he could get his spine-tinglingly urban style restored in a gig by this band...
