[TPIN] Bucket Mute

[Allegro69]

Thanks to Jonah Jones, the H and B bucket became fashionable after he
recorded the album 'Muted Jazz'. One track, On The Street Where You Live was
actually a hit tune heard on the radio many times a day, and he played it
using a bucket. Back then, it was more often called the Jonah Jones mute
rather than the bucket mute. Bobby Hackett was also an ardent bucket player.

They don't sound the same as the old-fashioned ones. They are heavy.
I still like the Humes and Berg.
