RE: OVERBLOWING
Dan,
I've gotta go back and listen to the Blind Owl (Alan Wilson) play
On The Road Again, to hear the overblow on hole 6 you mentioned. Does it
come at the end of the tune? Can't hear it in my head right now. I for one,
think he played very well and did some amazing things on the harp, some of
which I still can't duplicate after 20 years of on-off playing. My favorite,
comes at the end of An Owl Song, in which he gets some weird honking sounds
going (could these be overblows?). Others may have a different opinion, but
I've never heard anybody refer to his playing as fussy. Some of it is very
intricate, but fussy, I don't think so.
Regards,
Bill
