Re: [Harp-L] Re:[was] a harp[now] Memphis Charlie

I don't have the record handy but I believe Blue Steel and Blue Stew are two 
different tunes. I have it on tape that is a double record of "Takin' My 
Time" and "Memphis Charlie".  Blue Steel is Charlie playing slide in a 
reworking of "Blue Guitar". Blue Stew is the jazzy tune with the sax. 
Probably my favorite Musselshite record(s)
My favorite tune from that record? "Two Little Girls" a nice solo piano jazz 
ballad.
