Re: [Harp-L] Re: Little Wing on harmonica





Raphael was an early influence and this is a style of harmonica playing to which I aspire. Not a lot of notes, not a wasted note, great tone and vibrato. This really works for me.

I guess I'm still waiting to hear that song done right on harmonica.

well, this probably isn't quite what you're looking for, since the harp is
playing accompaniment. but it's a sweet version nonetheless. it's
warren haynes (guitar and vocals), page mcconnel (piano), and mickey
raphael (harp).

i love this version. it's quiet and understated, preserving the beauty of
the song. mickey's harp is soulful, tasteful, not flashy. the consumate
sideman.
