> And if you don't know where the name Sweet Figlio comes from - legend has it that he was the office assistant who mistakenly wheeled a wheelbarrow through the Gennett studios in 1923 as the King Oliver band were recording Dipper Mouth Blues. It is said that if you listen to that title carefully you can hear the squeak of its unoiled wheel. At least so the late John R. T Davies used to claim.
Dear Brian,
You, unintentionally, started this thread.
What did my mate, the late John RT, say?
Where and when?
Very kind regards,
Bill.
