[Harp-L] re: was Popper now musical taste

[rainbowjimmy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

When you hear harp that really grabs you. it's good to sit down and try to
figure out just what moves you. Then steal it. Listen to Paul throw in the 1
hole for a low moan to add tension to the song. Listen to how Mel Lyman adds
emotion to a melody line. By all means steal Musselwhite's high octave
work--stick it right in the middle of those Popper runs(with some Sonny Terry
fox hunt thrown in along with Voodoo Chile slight revisit). Steal Jr Wells'
funk and his vibrato and steal Howling Wolf's manic energy.Figure out what
grabs you, incorporate those bits and bingo you've got your own style.
