Martin Craig with his alto saxophone in 1977
 
With my alto sax, 1979.
In about 1977, both Antoine Legris & I took up the saxophone; Antoine bought a tenor and I got a Guban alto. This enabled us to add some New Orleans material to the set, such as Roberta and Sea Cruise, as well as instrumentals like Peter Gunn and Tequila.

One night when we were playing at a club in Pelaw, Gateshead, we were asked to play out with the British National Anthem. As we'd never rehearsed it, we started off with a few bars and then broke into Tequila. The audience loved it but the club's management were furious and tried to stop us, leading to scuffles on the dance floor.
