[Harp-L] re: Charlie- Good Morning America.

Yes...Amp was facing backward, I did not like the tone, i know playing on tv
can be hard, but the sound was not good. I heard better..and Charlie sound
good on whatever he plays on it.

I think its all about taste..playing low and concise,.if the band were
cooking probably he will roll on it.

i didn't care for any of it at all. lauper has a great pop voice, but like
many pop artists who try, they really overdo the blues. charlie's tone and
volume were poor at best..and, i hate to say it...here i go...he's one of my
heroes, along with butterfield...but i feel he's lost a lot off his
fastball...his playing is just too mellow for my personal taste.  driving
back from the texas coast yesterday i listened to 'louisianna fog'...now
that's some harp!  blazing.  emotional.  inventive. fitting and serving the
song.  give it a listen.
as always, that's MY opinion. your mileage will, no doubt, vary.
