Dans les rues d'Antibes - Humphrey Lyttleton with Climax Jaz

Dans les rues d'Antibes - Humphrey Lyttleton with Climax Jazz Band in 1984. About ten years ago when I left the Climax Jazz Band to move to Canada's westcoast the father of Jamie Aug, our drummer, gave me a videotape which he called Jazz potpourri. George Aug often came to our gigs and taped many perfmances. It ended up on a shelf in one of my video cabinets. Just now I found a clip I like to share with my dear youtube and dailymotion friends. In 1984 our band had an opportunity to play a few tunes with famous trumpetplayer Humphrey Lyttleton. It was during a jazz weekend in Toronto and Humph was there as a special guest. We didn't even know Humph would come and perform with us until the beginning of our set. I choose Dans les Rue d'Antibes hoping and being pretty certain Humph would know it. Humph even announces it in good French. Even though the recording quality is limited ( a single VHS camera ) the atmosphere is there and it was a once in a lifetime memory and opportunity to play with Humph and have it filmed as well. During the tune Humph discusses the possibility to do a double clarinet solo and both Mick and Humph play the final part of the tune on clarinets. In the Climax Jazz Band: Bob Erwig cornet, Mick Lewis clarinet, Len Gosling trombone, Jack Vincken banjo, Chris Daniels bass and Max Littlejohns drums. p.s. When I was 15 one of my first 78's was Humph's band with On a Treasure Island and Tom Cat Blues on the flip side.
