Having explained that anomaly, I wish to pass to another:
Despite the patronage of various impresarios and performances at innumerable prestigious events, obscurity has clung to Trumpet like
anchovy paste on a favourite tweed jacket. His career started at the none-too glamorously esoteric Egremont public house where he was bizarrely recruited by an eccentric landlord (not for the last time) to play the piano, even though he couldn�t. Emboldened, and baffled, by the enthusiastic response, he joined with
