Does anybody remember Humphrey Littleton?!
Question:
Does anybody remember Humphrey Littleton?
He is in his eighties now, and is STILL playing Jazz
Answers:
Oh, you mean Humphrey LYTTLETON. He is a Brit who started a revivalist movement in England in the late 40s for Dixieland and traditional jazz. Primarliy a trumpet player, he also has been known to double on the clarinet.
Personally, I am not too endeared with Dixieland and early swing, so I really haven't listened much to him. If I am in the mood for such music, I opt for Satchmo, King Oliver, Sidney Bechet or Jelly Roll - the originals.
