I know how to read music but I'm not a musician. I can sing but I can't get the notes to come out right on any instruments. I know - I've tried. I've had pros try to teach me (even on drums) with utter failure.
Paul McCartney never learned how to read music either. when he did the Liverpool Symphony he collaborated with a scribe who helped him convert the individual instruments' parts to tablature/staff that the musicians could read. George Martin told him never to try to learn how or he would lose his natural ability to write in his head.
