Re: "Captain" Tommy Dorsey
Thanks for sharing those pictures. TD was the first trombonist I listened to. I was about 10 when my parents got me a Best of TD LP. I listened to it constantly (my mother had given away the TV !) and imagine my surprise when I discovered that TD had lived not 10 minutes away a couple of decades earlier!
His house was up for sale a number of years ago and the realtor video is still on YouTube.

I just finish rereading TD's bio. Lots of mentions of his yatch but no photos so I was glad to find these.
