Humphrey Lyttelton - South (Live and never before released)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2015
- A birthday gift for all Humphrey Lyttelton fans - please pass it on.
Humph would have been 94 today and to celebrate here is a free recording never before released.
Humph, with Bruce Turner and Roy Williams, was part of the Salute to Satchmo Tour that visited Australia in 1978. Rolling back the years and delving back into the New Orleans catalogue, Humph is joined by a local band called The West Coast Jazzmen from North Freemantle, Australia. The gig was a 'loosener' before the main concern the next day and the band let rip with their version of 'South'.
The recording(s) was found on a CDR and restored by David Watson at The Monostery.
Please pass on to fans who may not be linked to Humph's web page or Facebook
Humph was my late Dad's all time favourite musician (and comedian). Bad Penny Blues will be the final song at his upcoming funeral. Thanks Humph for all the joy you gave him.
My hero!! I read his autobiography when I was 17 in 1958. So talented - and what a sense of humour!
Humphrey Lyttelton introduced me to jazz aged 13 via my radio. 12 years later I played piano with him for all of 3 minutes. Trad. jazz makes me happy .
Humph - a legend. Both musically but comedically, one of the absolute greatest.
Bravo! Bravo!
What I know about England could fit in a thimble. I'm a Southern Californian. And like most of us here, I don't have to know anything beyond my immediate horizon.
I didn't know that he served in the British army, but I guess that shouldn't be a surprise. I learned that from this video.
The pictures and the cartoons that accompany this piece are delightful.
Anyhow, this was all before he devolved into that Dirty Old Man as the host of I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue. And I not only enjoy that show, but also I admire him greatly ( but then, I'm not well).
And please give my best regards to Samantha!
Artistic,witty legendary man - raconteur,broadcaster and musician! Thank you Humph - you are much missed in my life!
Brings back so many memories. I remember listening to Humph at Osterley Jazz Club the night President Kennedy was shot. What I remember most about the evening was that Humph's glasses were held together with a sticking plaster.
Remember his fantastic concerts in 1955 at the Oxford Street 100 Club. Humprey R.I.P.
Amazing life on the "wrong side of the tracks" for an Eaton boy.
Shows you the magnetic power of sincerely felt and played music -especially in Jazz.
"Eton".
Eaton is a village near Congleton (between Stoke and Manchester).
Thanks for posting. Dear old Humph, a legend, sorely missed.
Lovely thank you 😊
100 years old on 15 May 2021. Thanks.
H.L.? I believe may 23 , my birthday too
Beautifully relaxed swing!
Jiving at The Humph Club, 100 Oxford Street London, an iconic 1950's trad jazz band venue. Great memories of the 1950's
Yes! 100 Oxford st! What a heaving mass of sweaty, duffle coated,black stockinged humanity it was too - they don't dance like that anymore! Remember the skip jiving style? I wish I could experience a 1950's jazz club scene just one more time!
@@rropo1Thanks for your comment. So true. Seen skip jive in US films, I think !
RIP Humph' You certainly changed my life when you were my special guest on my debut harmonica album " Building Dreams".
Eccellent Indeed, Littleton so much bixian yet still himself. Good job cats. Long live our true jazz!
Amazing! What a life, what a man.
I have listened to Humph since I was a young lad in the early 60's on Humphrey Lyttleton's Jazz Hour on Long-Wave radio. Later I played with him and several of the chaps also present on this number. I have been very lucky indeed.
I still have my L J C lapel badge membership for Macks Restaurant 100 Oxford street June 1950 a R E ME squady
Oh fantastic, thank you Stephen.
A WORTHY TRIBUTE - THANK YOU
Great stills & cartoons as well as some great music!
Zur herrlichen Musik auch noch die tolle Bildersammlung!
We were at the show in Melbourne and it was great to see locals I had seen in UK join him on the stage. Bad Penny blues was the best birthday present after leaving school.
Thank you for posting this!

Loved Bad Penny Blues since childhood. Wonderful to be able to play it again.
Love it! Wonderful photos too.
Still hugely missed by all who heard or knew him
Gone but too important to be forgotten.Thanks Humph for all those Monday nights radio 2 sounds of jazz.(can some one tell me what the name of the theme tune was)
Gorgeous and impassioned!
Brilliant photographs and drawings!
Fabulous, darling Humph.
That was great, both musically and visually. Thanks for posting
Thanks for sharing, Michael. This is fantastic!
Humph was the Master, I first heard those Parlophones at school in about 1951, I still listen to them on CD
Thank you for a wonderful video.
Great stuff as always. Thanks
I remember see him with George Webs Dixielanders at the B'ham town hall 1947 beat that children.
Brian Fairey. Me too. We must be ancient. Remember the Ministry of Health recipes during the War. I guess we're eating the right things to stay around so long. Were you evacuated?. Getting away from the bands, try Judith Durham, Shimmy like my sister Kate. Good singer and good backing Band
Thanks for this. Great
Thanks so much :-)
Missed more than almost anyone.
👍
wonderful and who is better than Roy Williams? No not even T!
Roy W my trombone idol advised by his trombone teacher to "give up trombone" . Eh??
Wonderful - As far as I was concerned he was the pied piper.
Enjoyed a memorable liquid lunch with him.
leo joseph. It still exists this wnderful jazz.
This what Humf did when not being chairman of I'm sorry I havent a clue. Were is Samantha?
Good to se that Humph's study was as much a mess as mine always is. Good excuse !
