[Dixielandjazz] Celebrity thread

[Dave Hanson]

Woody Allen has been mentioned  here on the DJML for  playing clarinet(actor, producer, director, comedy writer, Academy Award winner) Anyway it brings back some memories about some other celebrities that I recall playing instruments as well as other activities.. A few that come to mind are Maury Wills (banjo, baseball player), George Segal (banjo, actor, Academy award winner),Dudley Moore (jazz pianist, comedian, movie credits?),Hal Linden (clarinet, actor, TV sitcom). Jack Sheldon ( trumpet, actor, comic, TV personality) Ozzie Nelson( big band leader, TV star), Kevin Bacon (rocker, actor), Harry Connick( actor, pianist, singer, song writer) who could forget Steve Allen ? ! I'm sure there are many more, but I find the thread interesting.

Perhaps we can think of others.......
