Comment
After forming Pulp in the late 70s, it took Jarvis over a decade to find success through music, with massive hits including the early 90s era-shaping hits "Common People" and "Sorted For Es And Wizz."
Jarvis says his ambition was 'to write songs that included the bits which other pop songs had edited out.'
Four years ago, Jarvis moved to Paris, but has recently re-emerged with his first solo album, "Jarvis" which was nominated for a Brit Award for Best Solo Male.
The South Bank Show filmed footage of Jarvis performing his new material at Camden's Roudhouse earlier this year.
Another highlight of the prgramme is a rare interview given by Scott Walker, who praises Jarvis' songwriting abilities.
The show also sees Jarvis take Bragg on a tour of Paris, before returning to Castle Market in his hometown of Sheffield. Jarvis comments that his first job there as a teenager on an crab stall was "probably the only proper job I've had in my life."
