There is a feeling of experimentation here. I enjoyed watching them play as if they're out of their time.

This guy was really a string virtuoso. Really pioneers the essence of steel guitar. ...and that miniature violin!

According to Brian Rust, "The Dance Band Discography 1917-1942", in addition to Bob Mayhew (trumpet), Wendell "Gus" Mayhew (trombone) and Jack Mayhew (clarinet & alto sax) were in the Kemp band in 1928. What a musical family!

The Great Eddie Peabody.....saw him in person several times...
played an entire show for me when I was 11 years old at the
Lookout House in Covington, KY......a friend of my dad's......
no one like him......great musician, entertainer, wonderful and
humble gentleman......top notch in every way. Love you EP !!!!!
This is too cool.
Robert (Bob) Mayhew, the coronet player, was my grandfather on my mother's side. (Also, John Scott Trotter was my mother's godfather) My mom and my aunts were clustered around the computer watching this.
Thanks for posting this, man!

Very good to hear from the grandson of Bob Mayhew! he was a very fine trumpeter who recorded many excellent solos not unlike some of Bix Beiderbecke's. Could you tell me which of the trumpeters in the film is your granddad?
