Lamb, of Irish decent, is usually regarded as the only non African American of the great early classic ragtime composers.
With the revival of interest in ragtime in the 1950s Lamb shared his memories of Joplin and other early ragtime figures with music historians, composed some new rags and brought out some of his old compositions that had never been published, and made some recordings.
Lamb, of Irish descent, was the only non African American of the "Big Three" composers of classical ragtime, the other two being Scott Joplin and James Scott.

 'Beef and Lamb' delight in Mumbai
Allan Lamb, short and stocky and without his strapping moustache, made up with his treasure of anecdotes.
Botham and Lamb kept a small audience in good spirits with cricket stories on the master sledgers from Australia and the West Indies, some absurd characters in their dressing room and the weirdest events they were involved in.
Lamb informed that after a lot of discussion the England players decided not to walk against the snaring West Indies on his first tour to the islands in 1985-86.

 [No title]
Rob Bailey steered to first slip, Allan Lamb`s flurry ended with him lbw pushing forward and Northants were in steep decline as Kevin Curran hooked to long-leg and David Capel popped one up to point.
Cork sensed it was his day when a catch was spilled off Allan Warner and Paul Aldred got a nick with a no-ball but Neil Mallender survived an edge to second slip before he had scored and there was a more dramatic miss after the same batsman had wandered in front.
Lamb, having almost played on two balls earlier, perished to one which left him late and Northants were in need of some middle-order ballast when Rob Bailey, dropped at second slip off Andrew Harris on eight, sliced a florid drive.

 Cricinfo - Players and Officials - Allan Lamb
Signed from Western Province as an unknown by Northamptonshire as their overseas player in 1978, he was chugging along nicely when Ken Turner, their secretary, persuaded him that South Africa were years away from returning to Test cricket and that he should invoke his English-born parents to play for England.
He never lost his accent nor his attitudes: there was always the hint of the colonial chancer about him -- but Lamb was to be a fixture of the England middle order for the next decade.
Lamb captained England in three Tests, hopelessly, but in 1995 he came close to taking Northamptonshire to their first Championship, strutting round the county grounds like Napoleon.

 Ali Bacher's nephew bats himself into record books
If you want to get technical about it, Allan Lamb had way back in 1992 hit 209 and 107 for Northamptonshire against Warwickshire at Edgbaston.
However, this fact is being given the miss by the United Cricket Board of South Africa.
Lamb's disqualification from the record books apparently stems from the fact that though he was South African, he lived and played all his cricket in, and for, England.

 YouTube - ALLAN LAMB BASHES BRUCE REID
They showed this the other day and it made Lamb Chop's feat seem even greater as he seemed to be batting in a dense fog.
And while England were pretty good for a team described as the worst to leave England, we were pretty terrible and adept at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
He had stopped watching it at the end of the 49th over thinking it was a forgone conclusion -- Reid was a miser of a bowler back then -- and was getting ready to give me a serve about his mighty Aussies.
