Re: Sonny Terry
Hi. I've been on this list for a few months now and I've enjoyed it
a lot. I wonder if anyone can help me with two things.
1. I recently purchased a Sonn Terry album called "Chain
Gang Blues" (Collectables Records, COL-CD-5-195). Although
there is no documentation, I am sure that he's playing with
Woody Guthrie on many of the songs. I'd like to get more
information on the songs (musicians, dates, factoids). If
anyone can help out, I'd really appreciate it. The album,
by the way, is great.
2. Regarding overblows: When one blow-bends on 7-10, the note
goes down a half step (or two on 10 blow). What happens
on a 6 overblow. Does the note bend up or down. Is the
technique similar to regular blow bends? I can blow bend the
7 to 10 fine, but haven't been able to bend the 6 blow.
Finally, can one overblow the 1-5 holes too?
