People are loving this Housemartins blast from the past

Anyone who owns a guitar will at some point have had a little jam session with a mate – probably annoying the neighbours in the process, but singer Jacqui Abbott, formerly of The Beautiful South, has shared a clip of a jam session made in heaven. In a behind-the-scenes glimpse of her tour with Beautiful South bandmate and Housemartins frontman, Paul Heaton, Jacqui can be heard singing along to the massive Housemartins Hit Happy Hour, with Paul and their supporting musicians. It’s an absolute joy.

The response surprised Jacqui, even though it won’t have surprised anyone else.
