[edit]Re. Budd's first recording, I have the following, which I'm including in such a way as to not create conflict with existing version:
Roy Budd London: Early 1965 Ian Carr (tp); Dick Morrissey (ts); Roy Budd (p,org); Trevor Tomkins (d); Harry South (arr) + others.
which includes the Roy Budd / Harry South composition "Birth of the Budd"
Could someone verify this. Regards, --Technopat 08:40, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
Pizza correction
[edit]The original version stated that he played a 24-hour concert in the late '90s. This would be quite a feat for a musician who died in 1993! 166.70.191.224 (talk) 21:27, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
"Verified by his brother"
[edit]In what manner did his brother verify ? Interview ? Biography ? Private interview ? -- Beardo (talk) 05:59, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
Grammar School
[edit]Roy and I went to grammar school together in Hackbridge, south London, where we had a particular bond as he and I shared the same birthday. The amazing thing about Roy was that, although he was such a gifted pianist, which we knew, he could not read music. Whether he ever learned to later in life I don't know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 112.118.51.120 (talk) 04:55, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
Dubious claims
[edit]The article says "In 1950, and 1951 he featured on the Carroll Levis show on radio. Roy also won a talent competition on a television talent show hosted by Bert Weedon in 1952". In 1950 he would have been two or three. This claim strikes me as ludicrous. DuncanHill (talk) 23:07, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
Pub pianist ?
[edit]I can remember a Roy buddy trio playing at the vulcanised Arms on the Isle of dogs on the early to mid sixties, was this him ? I always thought so, he had some guests turn up late after reforming in time. 2.28.156.235 (talk) 01:13, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
