This is the Panama Jazzmen front line in full flight shortly after wining the Oxford competition. The brown Blazers were bought with the prize money of £30 or was it £50 pounds? Ronnie McLean (tmb) had a blazer but was not wearing it on this occasion. The bass player was Dave Thurston from Whitley Bay Joe McMullen, of course on trumpet and your truly on clarinet.
Don Armstrong.
Thanks to Don and to Pete Drysdale for this most interesting photo and the items of memorabilia (click on the above).
Incidentally, Jack Goodwin send his regards and assures Pete that he is still alive!
