Hi Lance

Russell
One of the best photos of the RCQ in action I've seen. If Jack were willing to permit this photo to be place on Ian's website I would be most grateful if he could contact me at:
admin@iancarrssnucleus.net
Many thanks
Roger
I was happy to add the photo to the Ian Carr web site.
Jack
Thats very amusing to read about Ian Carr not being a very good trumpet player aound 1953! Probably
a year or so earlier I was having a
"jam" session with brother Mike in
their Gosforth house when in walked
Ian with a trumpet he had just bought. I seem to remember him trying to get a note out of it without much success. How time changed eh!
There was a tribute to Ian Carr on radio 4 this afternoon, about 4pm.
