    Sometimes, as my mother taught me long ago, it's not good practice to try 
and irritate people. That could account for some of the problem...
FYI... I have not been the world's biggest Jason Ricci fan, though I sure 
wouldn't discount his ability and I didn't find   him boring when I saw him play 
live. I'd love to be able to play that well. But then, I'd love to sound like 
Butterfield too, because i DO buy all the things mentioned in the earlier 
Harp-L writings about the Butterfield Blues Band.... Then again, opinions are like 
*****, we've all got them.
