Reviews:

In the end though, it is hard to beat the recollections of an 85-year old who devotes himself to elegant prose, who delivers impeccable anecdotes and who doesn't flinch from his hard times.  The book could go on for ever, with its mixture of self-effacement and justifiable pride. But one of the book's strengths is its brevity. It has a winning lack of structure that makes it perfect to pick up and plonk down at the bedside - a structure he explains by saying of this thoughts, "There's no butler of the mind to usher them in - no mostly they wander in and out of the room uninvited, like children, cats and hospital cleaners". ...we should hope for a follow-up soon!! Daily Telegraph - 9/12/06

Humph... lets his guard down in a book that closely resembles a series of friendly fireside chats. This remarkable book perhaps draws us closer to Humphrey Lyttelton than any before!

  Humphrey Lyttelton and His Band are now an 8-piece!  
The recent addition of Jo Fooks on tenor sax has made for a weightier, fatter sound.  Jo came on stage as Humph's special guest at their recent performance at the Edinburgh Jazz Festival, along with veteran guests Acker Bilk and Joe Temperley for what Humph has fondly remembered as "possibly their finest gig ever!" The concert marked the celebration of Humph's 85th birthday.

The Band have just released their latest studio album "Cornucopia!"
