Veteran singer who famously starred in the 1972 film The Harder They Come. Glastonbury's Jazz World stage thrilled to Cliff's incredible repetoire including Many Rivers To Cross, You Can Get It If You Really Want and a cover of Cat Steven's Wild World.

One of the highlights of the festival, including a great rendition of Cat Steven's 'Wild World'

Graham Walker, Bath
Great to see JC back at Glastonbury. We saw him in 2003, he came on stage and the rain was teaming down but as the first bars of "I can see clearly...." started, the clouds broke, out came the sun and it shone for the rest of the weekend. Happy, happy memories
