[Dixielandjazz] Fw: Henry 'Red' Allen with the Alex Welsh Band

[Steve Voce]

Roy gave up playing the trombone many years ago, giving his horn to his son,Dino (Roy was always a big Dean Martin fan!). Roy fooled around with trumpet for a bit, but these days no longer plays at all. A great lifelong Bill Harris fan like me, he was one of the best British jazz trombone soloists.
