Me trying to look like David Byrne

Sure Ain't No Shirley Temple!

Some 13 years ago I bought a clarinet for my then 6-month old daughter, thinking that she would grow into the instrument. The other day I spotted a dusty case atop my bookshelf and remembered the lady from the California foothills and the clarinet she sold me.

I've picked it up three or four times since then and can now play 12 or so notes. There are several YouTube videos that have been helpful in learning scales. Here's the best clarinet playing I've found so far. Funny the way they wore trousers so high back then.
