He played in the orchestra at the Victoria Palace on the musical Annie in 1977 where I was assistant conductor and everyone knew he had done the coronation Street theme.

I suspect that every major musical centre has at least one claimant. It would seem that there is no way to finally prove the player's identity, or all these men wouldn't be making their claims.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-42267492664038990512009-10-23T11:39:28.557+01:002009-10-23T11:39:28.557+01:00Just to extend the debate it might be useful to li...Just to extend the debate it might be useful to listen to Duke Ellington-Dear Old Southland 1933 Victor 24501SPIVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17806140885855450563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-15199564213073939192009-06-25T08:28:21.585+01:002009-06-25T08:28:21.585+01:00I am Mr Ronnie Hunts Godson from America ...

Ronnie Hunt IS the player that played on the original recording and all these years deserved the respect as the trumpet who played the beautiful recording on the show.
