When Jools Holland first invited Jewel onto his Later programme, they discovered that not only do they share a similar name, but also the first song that they both learnt was Saint Louis Blues. They played the song together (with Jools on piano) as part of Jools' 5th Annual Hootenanny, broadcast in the UK on New Year's Eve 1997. It was written by William Christopher Handy in 1914.
