Fog horn Siren

The Rev. Satchmo could sing, too. No, I don't mean like Ella, or my operatically trained friend Carol Dewar, or even Norah Jones. But he sure knew how to use that gravelly voice to make you feel something, like Springsteen, who ain't much of a singer either, or John Prine, or a couple of my personal favorites, Harry Chapin and Tom Waits.
