Bleeding Gums Murphy

"Bleeding Gums" Murphy was a fictional character on the cartoon television series The Simpsons. Saxophone player and long-lost brother of Dr. Julius Hibbert, Bleeding Gums was a mentor for Lisa Simpson until his early death. He recorded one album called Sax on the Beach, which was extremely lucrative, but he soon went broke after spending too much of his money on several Fabergé eggs a day. This jazzman always wore dark glasses on the show.

In the episode "Moaning Lisa", he played and vocalized a song written by Lisa. It pleased Lisa to see the televised performance of her own blues song, but not everyone in the family room was happy with lyrics that criticized her family members.

The voice of Bleeding Gums Murphy was provided by Ron Taylor.
