Humphrey Lyttelton Trouble In Mind

[birdmanm5255]

O.H. nigga original humphreyyyyy you feeeeel me????!?!?!

[MsGreyling]

Makes me smile at the end of a long, long year, Thanks again, Humph. Thanks for the post. Lyttelton. See his ancestor who was part of the 'Gunpowder plot' if you want the older (same) spelling. Miss him and all he brought

[testtubegruffnut]

One can hear the origin of Acker Bilke's "Stranger on the Shore".

[oldtimejazzfan]

But Acker Bilk was still in his teens when Humph recorded that.

100 club Oxford ST.

Any body remember Saturday all night Sunday morning sets , with a white transit selling beer at the back door

University of life and Great jazz

The jam sessions of guests were just Great

Took Me back to 100 Oxford St, ca 1953. sounds just as good today ! THANKS

Humph got me started on jazz at age 15 (don't ask how long ago) and this brings back memories of albums borrowed from schoolmates. Now an unreconstructed Colyer fan, I always prefer Humph's earlier work of which this is a good example.

[aikighost]

Humph is a legend. What a life. What a legacy.

[dfarmbrough]

Excellent! It sounds a bit like Deep Purple in places (The tune, not the band!)

[moeskel40]

Great! Thanks for posting this is superb.

That's Old Humph as I used to know and adore him and his music.

[smithywess]

Thank you very much for putting this on. First heard it in the early 60's while at University in London. I can't recall a better version and this is a tribute to Humph. So sad he's gone.

[LostChord13]

Wow! One of my favorite blues songs all jazzed up. Thanks..

[windonthewater]

I recognize that tune. I like it.

[davnkatz]

After 50+ yrs away, I am back playing bass. Thgis is a perfect song for me to play along for practice. It is also a super song for easy listening.

[40ny]

A great man.

[kingoliver45]

Does anyone know what year this is from?

[kingoliver45]

Wow this guy is really good. i had never heard of him until now. He's great!!

[EccentricRichard]

Was, alas. He died in April. A tragic loss and utterly irreplaceable.

[COLYERFAN]

Unmistakeably Humph! Thanks for that.

[thecerrig]

thanks so much - the record sleeve, as much as the beautifully-played track, bring it all back...

[RobeGre]

Although Humph would surely have bristled at seeing his surname spelt incorrectly, this posting now acts as a very fine tribute to him.

[klikonojazz]

I've chanched it in the meantime. But have a look at others. Even British sometimes spell the name wrong! Is "Lyttelton" correct?

[RobeGre]

Yes Lyttelton is the correct spelling, and you are right to say that many UK writers have also spelt it incorrectly. I think Sammy Rimington often has a similar problem: Rimmington or even Remington.

[poutitechatte]

Wonderful tune and wonderful playing.
