Saw JCC in the mid-70's at Manchester Poly (as it was then). I'd actually gone to see Clive James, who was touring with a guy called Pete Atkin. In the interval, JCC jumped onto the stage completely unannounced and started reciting his poetry.

Security were going to throw him off but the crowd demanded they let him stay on so they did. We'd never seen anything like it but how could you not like "You'll never see a nipple in the Daily Express"?

I turned to the guy stood just behind me and said "He's good isn't he?". "Yes. How the fuck am I going to follow that?" said Clive James.
