played by Percival Mackey and his Band
Percival Mackey has been musical director for some of the most successful musical comedies on the West-End stage, among them No! No! Nanette and Gay Divorce. His band of eleven players had its radio debut last June. Although it is a rhythm combination, it has none of the regular features of a dance band, such as sax or brass sections. Other omissions are piano, drums, and accordion.
