From Shopkeepers in the North ("When you've had a good chin-wag / They'll pop your provisions in your bag) to Eggs and Gammon (Poor Rhiannon / Ken's got wind) and the sublime I Can't go Back To Savoury Now (That Shepherd's pie was stunning / But I'm half way through me pudding), every time he sits down to play, the audience knows they in for a treat.

Sean O'Grady, The Independent, 28th July 2014John Shuttleworth - review
Those of us who have long believed John Shuttleworth's songs to harbour untapped reserves of musical and emotional potency could hardly resist this breast cancer charity event: an evening of cover versions by chart-topping acts from now and way back when.
Brian Logan, The Guardian, 23rd September 2012Interview: John Shuttleworth, comedian, musician
