Hi Dave

Welcome to the breakfast room from deep in the heart of Northamptonshire. You'll love the sax it kinda grows on you, I started in my first band playing ska and reggea in the 70's, what was good about it was most of the Jamaican stuff was in really easy keys.

Have fun in here we're a good bunch of folks happy to help in any way.

Simon
