Re: Pete Fountain Mardi Gras Tribute

I've never met Pete Fountain, in fact I'm not sure that I've ever been on the same continent at the same time. That apart, I've always been a great fan and love to listen to him play. I am physically quite like Pete Fountain in his later years, and while this has sometimes been commented on, never so well as a few years ago. I'd been playing at a garden party jazz gig with a local band, and I'd spent the afternoon blowing my heart out and having a great time. As we packed up one of the party guests came up to me and said "Did you know that you look just like Pete Fountain? Pity you can't play the clarinet."
