At the age of eleven he won a scholarship to the local grammar school, and his parents rewarded him with the gift of a soprano saxophone. He took to the instrument immediately and became a professional musician at sixteen, taking a job at the Regent Dance Hall, Brighton. In 1927 he joined Fred Elizalde's Orchestra at the Savoy Hotel, and over his career he played with some of the best known bandleaders.
