John Wallace & his Tenor Saxophone
Tenor saxophonist and jazz musicianI was 14 years old when being driven back by dad from a summer holiday in West Runton Norfolk, where we have a cottage, that I heard the beautiful sound of Lester Young playing Tenor sax through the radio. I remember telling dad that this was the sound I'd love to make. Soon I was the proud owner of a tenor sax! A 'Power Tone' made in Slovakia....
I carried on playing in part time bands while trying jobs ranging from car mechanics to house decorating, car coachwork, golf pro, green keeper, contracted gardener. It was at this time I was playing in a rock n roll band called The Stargazers
