Hello all

Eagle-eyed Don Ingle has identified actor Fred MacMurray in the series 
of saxophone photos accompanying the recently listed Eddie Cantor 
YouTube clip. MacMurray is in the sepia print of the "yacht club" 
saxophone ensemble, front row, right, holding a baritone sax.

Don also notes that quite a few actors were involved in jazz at some 
stage of their careers, eg Dick Powell (?trumpet), Dennis Morgan 
(trombone), Jerry Colonna (trombone) and Clint Eastwood (piano).

Don then asked "Who knows what cross-over talents will emerge in this 
thread?"

Indeed, who knows?

All the best,
Anton
