If you find you can't live without Bb, I know a bloke who can get his hands on some A# if you've got cash.

This is a disaster - I can play Bb but I can't play A# . . .

The street value on some good A# will probably cost ya a "C" note  ;D

All you really need for great music is C major or Aminor anyway. 😆
