Craig Charles finds out about the origins of jazz funerals from Jason Berry, director of 'City of a Million Dreams'.

The documentary, which is showing as part of the Doc'n Roll Film Festival, explores the relationship between parading culture, music and recovery.

Expect tunes from Mardi Gras bands Cha Wa and Hot 8 Brass Band, as well as the lowdown on photographer John Ingledew's new zine 'Looking for Trouble', which documents youth culture in Britain from the late 1970s to the mid-1980s.
