Happy Birthday Dave.

 My old jazz mate is 85 today. Dave Proud has many musical talents and is a fine trumpet and trombone player (among other brass instruments). He also came up with the 'never bettered' saying about a band he was in, "We're not as bad as we sound."

Dave had a little trick he used to do of playing a teapot. This little video clip is dedicated to Dave.

Happy birthday David Proud.

  1. That was good.
    I can see a series coming up of you playing all of your kitchen and other household items:


    Cadenza on a colander.
    Movement in a chamber pot.
    Opus for oven.
    Symphony for settee.
    Air for the extractor.
    Bagatelle for baking dish.
    Canon for candle holder.
    Toccata for toaster.
    Bagatelle for the bread-maker.
    Canzone for coffee maker.
    Concerto for crockery.
    Waltz for washing machine.
    And, of course, tone poem for the toilet.
