<p>You shouldn't leave out the great Archie Semple, and Acker Bilk
was ten times the jazz musician your pal Cy Laurie was! Not to
mention any of the fine modern clarinettists or the extremely
skilled Sid Phillips. There are many more in your field, of
course, who it would pain to omit - Christie, Turner, the
ci-devant Danny Polo....</p>
<p>But don't let us start making lists again. It's non-productive,
like stamp collecting.<br>

Cy was a Dodds' man. Whether he was or was not as
good is difficult to tell, as his sound, in
particular in his later years, was different. As
impassioned as Dodds', yes, but different. In his
later years Cy played lots of music which was quite
removed from New Orleans.<br>
</div>
But de gustibus, etc... After all, this is not our
only disagreement regardsing music, which is all right
with me.<br>
</div>
Yes, I did know about Dodds' son - what a change from
the WW1 days, when an American Negro could fly for
France but not for his own country! Good to know that
at least some things change for the better.<br>

Cheers (going to have Jem's 8.8)

<p>I agree, Maryk, that Wally is
one of the clarinet greats. His
work in solo and in ensembles
with Humph was sublime. He was
also, until his sight
deteriorated, one of the
greatest cartoonists. Cricket is
one of his great joys in life,
and he and his wife Sue have
separate television sets in the
same room. Wally has to sit very
near to and watch the set from
an oblique angle, whilst Sue
sits at a normal distance from
hers and views it from a normal
angle.</p>
<p>Cy Laurie, on the other hand,
was a nutter who genuinely
believed that he was the
reincarnation of Johnny Dodds.
He might have got away with that
if he had been as good as Johnny
Dodds, but unfortunately he was
only as good as Cy Laurie. Did
you know, incidentally, that
Johnny Dodds's son had a full
career as an airline pilot?<span

<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>
