Richard Dabson, who works as a waiter in a Piccadilly Circus restaurant by day, is a successful composer when he goes home in the evening.
Soon at his first composition was broadcast by the BBC, Dick, as he is known to his customers, was offered a job different from waiting, but he turned it down because he says his present work inspires him with musical ideas.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the extraordinary story of Richard Dabson, a waiter who strikes a different note in life. By day, he gracefully serves customers at a bustling restaurant in Piccadilly Circus, but when evening falls, he transforms into a successful composer of music. Dabson's talent and passion for composing became evident when his first composition was broadcasted by the prestigious BBC. This recognition opened doors for him to pursue a career solely dedicated to his musical endeavors. However, despite tempting offers to leave his waiting job behind, Dabson chose to remain rooted in his current profession as it continues to inspire him with new melodies. As he attends to patrons at the Monaco restaurant, Dabson's mind is filled with tunes that range from stirring marches to sentimental waltzes and passionate tangoes. One particular composition titled "Sweetheart" has even been adapted into a short film set for release soon. In this timeless photograph taken on September 21st, 1937, we see Richard Dabson amidst the ambiance of the Monaco restaurant where he harmonizes both worlds – one as an accomplished waiter and another as an acclaimed composer. His unique journey reminds us that true passion knows no boundaries or limitations.
