Re: F Harps

["Winslow Yerxa" <winslowyerxa@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sonny Boy II played F harp a lot. It's been awhile, but Decoration 
Day on the "shoe" album (More Real Folk Blues) was on a high F, as 
were several others he recorded for Chess - Temerature 110, Nine 
Below Zero - put on any of his albums and there's bound to be at 
least three and they all sound great. He uses the brightness and high 
pitch of the instrument to wonderful expressive effect without ever 
being shrill.

I'm searching for inspiration...

What are some of the best songs you can remember where the harp 
player used
second position on an F harp (key of C). I know a lot of guys use the 
low F
harp but I'm looking for solos done with a regular F harp.

Any favorites? New or classic!
