As the band’s principal cornet player he led them to what was described as the most successful period of the band’s history during his eighteen months as its leader - it then followed that he was elected to the position as the band’s conductor.
During his time at Brighouse he and the band were very successful in the contest field and he was rightly very proud that their success had been achieved without the help of a professional conductor, a practice that most of the bigger brass bands had always adopted.
Another momentous occasion for the band and their bandmaster was in the summer of 1911 when Arthur O. Pearce had the distinction of conducting the band playing a programme in the presence of King George V at Buckingham Palace on the eve of the King’s Coronation.

Thingumybob by John Foster & Sons Ltd. Black Dyke Mills Band, a brass marching band, was the second ever single on the Apple label in 1968.
Thingumybob was a TV series theme song written by Paul, and the marching band did this very Pepperlandish rendition of Yellow Submarine for the flip side.
This 45 is very rare, and one early Apple catalogue incorrectly listed this Thingumybob/Yellow Submarine single as being by the Beatles.
