SynopsisJoining Jools for the second show of this series is East London's king of pop Dizzee Rascal, who has grown from one-time Mercury winner to chart-topping national treasure-in-waiting.

Editors make a welcome return to the studio to play tracks from their new third album In This Light And On This Evening.

Leeds' Gang Of Four, who were widely considered one of the leading bands of the late 70s/early 80s post punk-movement, still with original singer Jon King and guitarist Andy Gill, play tracks from their 1979 debut album Entertainment!, ranked as one of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time.

The UK's queen of soul and R&B Beverley Knight is also on the show with numbers from her new album 100%.

Also in the studio is Rolling Stone drummer Charlie Watts, who is sharing his love and knowledge of the ancient art of boogie woogie by accompanying pianists extraordinaire Ben Waters and Axel Zwingenberger, plus American bohemian singer-songwriter Krystle Warren, originally from Kansas City, now based in Paris, with songs from her debut album Circles, which introduces a strikingly original, intimate voice.

Jools is joined by Scottish trio Biffy Clyro ahead of the release of their album Only Revolutions. The legendary king of easy listening Andy Williams, whose career spans five decades, is in the studio, and Calvin Harris performs music from his album Ready for the Weekend.

Celebrating their 30th year as one of Britain's best bands, Echo and the Bunnymen - 're-energised' according to frontman Ian McCulloch - are in the studio to play songs from their album The Fountain, including single I Need It Too.

The acclaimed Spaghetti Western Orchestra plays unique interpretations of Ennio Morricone's classic western soundtracks, and singer-songwriter Diana Jones completes the line-up with a number from her album Better Times Will Come.

This time, Jools is joined by South London synth duo La Roux made up of singer Elly Jackson and 'behind-the-scenes' Ben Langmaid. The duo were recently nominated for a Mercury Prize for their 80s-influenced self-titled debut album.

US bluesman Seasick Steve, now based in Norfolk, returns with his unique take on life and guitar playing, and a couple of tunes from his new album Man From Another Time.

Also in the studio Australia's guitar monsters Wolfmother, who undoubtedly take inspiration from the psychedelic groups of the 1960s along with the rock gods of the 70s, such as Black Sabbath and AC/DC.

Howard Devoto's reformed Magazine also perform songs on the show, including their 1978 classic debut single Shot By Both Sides.

And from Colinsville, Mississippi, soul singer Jimmy Ruffin, who had a worldwide hit in 1966 with What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted.
