Jazz Sincere Apologies to PigSquealer

[skeller047]

I have often needled my good friend Mr. PigSquealer for his devotion to the ugly-duckling stepchild of the saxophone family, the C-Melody. Which I have often thought of as the unfortunate crippled offspring of a drunken one night stand involving the beautiful alto and noble tenor.

I stand corrected.

Scott Robinson on "Ugly Duckling" and "Misery Stick"...?

 

[skeller047]

I started on a clarinet that looked like that 69 years ago. I still remember the smell.

Having seen several of the instruments that Scott Robinson plays (many of them on his appearance at Emmet Cohen’s apartment), I have wondered what his home smells like. Certainly there is some key oil fragrance, but I hope that musty mix of oil and mold and decades-old general funk is NOT there.

I have a great deal of admiration for him. He plays the real sh*t on every horn I’ve heard him on.
