  • Not bad but needs the muted trumpet

  • True - possibly also needs Joe Meek to fix the sound as he allegedly did to annoy Humph!!

  • Hi Maolchalium,

    Like all your videos and jazz, I have a copy of the original EP by Humph, as soon as I get

    a USB turntable, it's going on. None of these

    versions seem to hit the right spot.

  • Like this a lot. Takes me back. I went to a party at the North Middlesex Hospital and one of the doctors was playng this along with many other boogies, Oh happy days. Now when I go to the hospital they put me on a nebuliser :-( I've been trying to get hold of a copy of Humph's original version from the '50s. I've put Humph's New Bad Penny Blues on YouTube and would dearly like to listen to the original to compare.

  • The Beatles song "Lady Madonna" was based a bit on this song.

  • The mention of jazz being played in bars brought to mind my very first contact with Humphry Littleton's first band who played one night a week in Golders Green's Reflectory Resturant/bar in 1948. Monty Sunshine in his prime and the many musicians from other trad groups who dropped by. A very happy memory.

  • more great stuff from Al's Dad!!!

  • That was good ! Refreshingly different ! Bringing us back in time to when they played like that all night long in the bars.
