Trumpets, Music, Gadgets, Web Dev. and any other nonsense I feel like mentioning…
This evening, I was saddened to learn of the death of Humphrey Lyttleton; Trumpeter, Broadcaster, Raconteur. He was 86.
I enjoyed his Trumpet playing but my favourite of his many roles was as Chairman of the long-running Radio 4 show “I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue”. With his passing, the world is now a somewhat less amusing place!
RIP Humph.
Here’s a great Maynard video, posted in tribute on what would have been his 80th Birthday.
This time it’s Derek Watkins playing “MacArthur Park” with the James Last Orchestra, live in Berlin in the mid ’80s. Fantastic!!
Need I say more?
Jim Manley discussing the finer points of upper register playing and breathing with Brian McDonald and Kevin Burns of the Airmen of Note. Awesome!
Beauty pageant contestant Stacy Hedger does her “Trumpet Solo to Star Wars” routine. Prepare to cringe and laugh in equal measures!
