"London, England"

Has a more precise description of the location for JPJ scenes been disclosed?

What a cast!!!  The woman singer from NZ- wow!   The harmonica player is amazing!  Love the singer with the steel guitar.   

Great to see JPJ staying active.

Great version and so well done. Loved all the musicians. Derek Trucks is awesome with the slide.

I had to look for this topic, was John Paul Jones the arranger.

Anyway I like the arrangement.
