AVID Jazz here presents four classic Humphrey Lyttleton 10" albums plus, including original liner notes on a finely re-mastered and low priced double CD. “Jazz Concert”, “Jazz Session with Humph”, “Humph In Perspective”, “Here’s Humph!” and the plus, tracks from “Humph Swings Out”.

Our selections feature the great man across a diverse grouping of albums ranging from the transitional phase of “Here’s Humph!”, where we are treated to tracks from his old band, his revolutionary band featuring tenor sax and his current band of the moment! We then look back with Humph on “Humph In Perspective” where he reviews his musical achievements from his position as the pre eminent UK jazz man of the era and best known band leader in Europe. On “Jazz Session with Humph” we hear all but one track recorded before an invited and delighted audience. Rounded out with A Jazz Concert” and tracks from “Humph Swings Out” we present a well rounded representation of one of the greatest British jazz musicians ever, Humphrey Lyttleton.
