<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Wally Fawkes! A perennial favourite of mine ever since I first heard the early Humph band, when dad brought me the "Humph's Blues" EP back in 1959. I have since acquired quite a few Wally Fawkes (and Humph) recordings, including "It seems Like Yesterday" (it doesn't). I bought SOS' "That's the Blues, Old Man" and later, unlike my wont, the Lake reissue of the three Fawkes albums on SOS when the other two LPs were no longer available (I could not afford them at the time of issuance). And more. Only not the Troglodytes - I have one second hand EP, but so far I haven't seen any LPs of the group; I have, however, The Neo-Troglodytes.<br></div>I consider Fawkes one of the all time clarinet grates (all the others, with the exception of Cy Laurie, being American).<br></div>Cheers<br><div><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 24 June 2017 at 00:22, ROBERT R.

I was reminded in the non-political mailing linked to below<br>

The cartoon can be appreciated with another face in the place of the one shown.<br>
Too many faces, to be sure,<br>
<br>
and not Ruby Braff, Wally's caricature of whom nearly sent Kenny Davern into orbit.<br>
