[avenger232]

simply BRILLIANT! just discovered this group by fluke. i LOVE them!

[1510Ronald]

Chris Barber learned from Humphrey

[Urbino237]

WONDERFUL solo by Guenter! Using fewer notes than many and still be creative is very difficult to do, no matter the instrument. Outstanding.

[idamay1]

Great jazz! Have a soft spot for this tune. ACcording to jazz history, it was written by my Uncle, Walter Melrose,,,Whether or not, you do a fantastic job on it...

[livingaragtimelife]

Was Walter Melrose related to Frank Melrose?

[idamay1]

Yes, they were brothers. Lester, was also my uncle. They owned Melrose Publishing Co, but my father was not involved in the business.

[fourfourtime]

It was written by the New Orleans Rhythm Kings in 1923, and all 8 band members had a hand in it. It was resurrected in 1953 by Jo Stafford as a pop hit called "Make Love to Me."

[contourman1939]

RIP Humph, part of me went with you.

[MedievalMusician]

I met him and his band at the Tower Arts Theatre in Winchester tonight. The gig was brilliant, the guy's like 86, but still so good!

[BUBBS369]

ABSOLUTELY MIND BLOWING

[JazzWildcard]

Good stuff! Fabulous trombone! And great to hear Humph still, at this time, prepared to tackle traditional material. This tune is one of my all time favourites, and I always end up judging a band by how well I think it does with it! The 'trick,' in my view, is avoiding 'lumpiness' in the accompaniment (which, to be honest, I don't think they do here entirely) but, nevertheless, I think it works well overall, particularly the intro, which is beautifully measured.

[aussiesigs]

What a great 'bone man!

Love this tune - played by a fabulous band.

I take it that the band comes from Haarlem in Holland - yes?

And Humph is great!
