[Dixielandjazz] Saxophones

[Stephen Barbone]

Actually the Saxophone was invented by that famed Englishman,  Sir
Thomas Crapper, as a portable loo for the rest of the band. It was an
efficiency device that would allow for shorted breaks between sets.
Unfortunately Mr. Crapper passed away before perfecting the flushing
device he envisioned. (similar to a spit valve on trombone)

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
