More Than Just a Guitar Player
Although Clyde lost his beloved guitar at some point in his escapades, he always had dreams of becoming a musician. His love for music was present from an early age, and he taught himself how to play the saxophone as soon as he was old enough to try. When Bonnie and Clyde died in the shootout from police, investigators found a saxophone in the trunk of the car.
