RE: new George Smith release?

[tom ball <havaball@xxxxxxx>]

Dan asked:
I saw on Bluebeat Music there is a new George Smith release called "West
Coast Down Home Harp".  Does anybody know anything about this?  Is it just a
re-release of an old album under a different name, or never before released
tracks, or both?  Anybody know who backs him on it?

Hmmm...  Judging by the way it's listed on the Bluebeat sight, this 
appears to be a compilation of west coast postwar harpers -- not 
specifically a George Smith CD.  (Looks like it also features Johnny 
Dyer, Harmonica Fats and others...)  (?)
