I recall Maltese Tony arriving at the Bulls Head with at least 65 stone just because Terry hadn't kept the doorman on-side. I didn't see it but apparently they shut the lid on his hands and Stan (Tracey) had to sit in on Tubby's big band and the stripped-down sextet at the Head. Tony was a tough man - but fair.
Just after this was recorded I went with Pete King and Jimmy D to make a collection from Maltese Tony for the Buckingham Palace ice cream patch. It was all sweet but Jimmy got a bit wound up as usual and threatened Tony that Johnny (Dankworth) would be round if he didn't take more 99s. Happy days. Ronnie Ross owned this band and all the associated charts but Tubby supplied all the suits with a nod from Ronnie. I don't think Ronnie made anything from that, but who knows.
thanks for posting this clip Jim Deuchar was a very close relative of mine. He was able to arrange/write orchestral/big band pieces without the aid of an instrument. He wrote Suddenly Last Tuesday on tour on the back of a bus.He always spoke about Tubby and Ganley and co. I used to tell him Pete King is the most underrated sax players on this planet ofcourse he agreed........
Hi electrichaggis. Jimmy Deuchar was without doubt the best British modern jazz trumpet player of his time. I first saw him at the Marine Ballroom in Arbroath in the late 1950's sitting in with his father's band. (he played alto) I later used to see him at Ronnie Scott's old place then at the Bull's Head in Barnes. ALWAYS FABULOUS! Incidentally, I went to school in Carnoustie and Arbroath with his lovely sister!! Regards, saxhaggis (no relation to electrichaggis)
