Subject: RE: I play the Kazoo and I am proud of it
There used to be a tradition of 'Tommy Talker' bands in the West Riding of Yorkshire in the 20s and 30s, Tommy Talker being Yorkshire for kazoo (an Americanism apparently). They were mostly comic in nature and took part in carnivals and competitions.
