Davey Mutton's story ends tragically, as most jazz stars inevitably end. He had two wonderful years with Billie Holliday, until she prodded him with a fork, and then he caught up with Miles Davis to make "Bitches Stew", before driving a Rolls Royce into a sheep dip and drowning himself. Mind you, his coat was clean and nit-free when it came to the funeral.

We'll never forget young Davey Mutton, 1938-1971.

On the subject of Bratty, I can't give that gal enough hugs. She is just too nice.
