Hey that's SO TRUE. I agree 100% Douglas Tate was an inspiration to everyone who knew him. I HAD been 99% a blues diatonic player... After meeting Doug I became a 50:50 diatonic/Chromatic harmonica musician. (IMHO) Douglas loved the sound of the harmonica... ANY harmonica. He was NOT prejudiced. God Bless you Douglas Tate!
