Re: Big W on DVD

[Mark Crowley <Mark.Crowley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi bob,

was that the same for mics - he would play thru vocal mics or bullets? - or it didn't matter?

I have seen some photos of him using only vocal mics - but that doesn't mean anything of course - just what he was waving around in front of a photographer.

John,
I've seen Big Walter personally many times during the 70's, and played thru
whatever was available, be it a borrowed amp, PA or anything else, never
screwing with any of the controls or effects, and regardless of all that, he
ALWAYS sounded like himself with that awesome tone. I learned more about
blues harmonica from watching him than from all the recordings I ever
bought.
