A battered top hat, a stuffed parrot on his shoulder and such a violent attacking violin style you'd swear he's about to saw right through the damn thing at any moment. In his Onyx Club days he was never always pitch perfect, but to be fair, it only adds to the sheer godless thrill of it all! Stuff is one of those old jazz artists that always crops up on those jazz compilation made up entirely of drug songs. He did his fair share of dope tunes (and his fair share of dope by the sounds of it!), but seems to have mellowed out a touch too much by the end of the 30's and wandered in a cloudy haze into a solo career that never saw him swing like a freshly oiled gate again!!
