They sing, play musical instruments, clown, juggle, mime, paint, draw, dress up. They do what they do even if terrified, rained upon, freezing cold, or blisteringly hot. Sometimes they even become famous, like Eddie Izzard. London's buskers of the 21st century and, frequently, their audiences are featured in this lush album that contains dozens of black and white photographs that mostly speak for themselves. We see a tightrope walker in Covent Garden, who gets a little help with his balance from a young audience member, medieval street performers at Trafalgar Square, and mimes of the South Bank, watched over by the London Eye.
