Jimmy Cliff, honey

As Bluesfest comes to a close we get one last set of reggae from Jimmy Cliff of The Harder They Come fame. He was in pretty good form and had a very able band. Most importantly he had a very enthusiastic audience.

The audience gets a warming-up.

And here's the man himself, looking quite sporty.
