Re: [Harp-L] a little more on gear

I'm sure back in the day for the old masters if the right amp  was there for 
them at the time, and was pointed out to them or found by them  they would use 
it full-time, but lets not forget some real stuff here, little  walter and a 
lot of these cats lived hard, fast lives, making money for them in  this new 
way opened up so many closed doors to them, that this whole new life  took over 
all their senses, they just never really thought about the amps as  much as 
i'm sure they would have liked, and was it not little walter who used to  
complain that he preferred to cup his harp with a mic and through an amp...yeah  
too right he did!!! walter was hip to this, but at that time it was all pretty  
new and still to be discovered, but walter and some others were discovering  
it! in later years guys like sonny jr etc.would define and refine it!  if 
walter had lived you just know he would have used a custom amp!!!
