Tim Riley, a librarian at The Crown Estate in London, wrote the first bio there, with a couple of of other people editing after that. The statement "first to play in tune from top to bottom" existed in the 1st edition of the Wikipedia bio, so Tim Riley wrote it.

Looking a little further, it appears the entire bio was cribbed from the cover notes of "Reginald Kell - The Complete American Decca Recordings".
