Doc is going to be 94. Maynard was 78 and still playing before he died. 31 is VERY young to be at the top of the heap. This is 2020 my friend where most 30 year old men (boys) still live at home with mommy! ...or they go back to mommy once they get their first divorce out of the way! I have a video coming out showing Derek doing a lot of kid like antics while on the bandstand with James Last which will kinda prove my point!
Derek was a “ beast” on the trumpet!!! 🎺🎺🎺
Little pat on the back from the guy next to you. Always nice.
Derek ..the Legend..superb player ..he was an all round player ..

Bob Lanese was young as well. Bob Coassin wasn't with them yet.
That's a fantastic line, Dave, well done you!

Awwwww. THAT'S who that was!
Is Len the guy next to Derek, or on the other side of the stage?
