A universal instrument

["Dennis Cooper" <harmaniac@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings all,

No matter how you slice it, dice it, discuss it, amplify it, over blow, or 
under practice it, the humble harmonica is an instrument heard around the 
world. To amplify my point, I've included a long and somewhat boring list of 
last week's demographics from my mp3.com premium artist site.

Maybe we can have an open, honest debate about how many listeners in 
Uzbekistan can distinguish overblows from half valve bends in 13th position.

Cheers,
The Harmaniac? Dennis M. Cooper
