we saw him play at a jazz/blues festival in nj a few weeks ago.
blew us all away.  i explained to my kids afterward that the stuff
he was doing was clearly impossible to do on a harp.  but he 
somehow managed to anyway.  there was a line afterwards at
the vending booth to buy his cd, "feel good funk", which is an
outstanding cd (yes, i was at the front of that line).

i see from his web site that there's a live cd on the way.
can't hardly wait.  for you others that can't wait, there are some
(apparently legitimate, linked from his site) mp3's you can
download at http://www.musicv2.com/artist/jasonricci

*highly* recommended.
