A young Copeland and his partner Joe Hughes, formed a band called the Deuces of Rhythm and started playing house parties. Before long they were getting decent paying gigs.Copeland cut his first record, “Rock & Roll Lily” in 1958 for Mercury Records. This was the start of a career that would span almost four decades and three continents. After 1973 Copeland started touring tirelessly and was able to keep his chops up while getting to go to Europe 1. Daily Bread and Asia.

Having played the instru- ment for, then, almost two decades, I thought that a novelist would not, could not, feature specialty instruments such as the C-melody sax if he did not play the horn himself. Once the saxophone had caught my attention, I noticed all sorts of uncommon references that seemed to confirm my hunch that Thomas Pynchon himself played the instrument: McClintic Sphere’s 4½ reed, the contra- bass sax of Against the Day, Gravity’s Rainbow’s Charlie Parker passage.
