Please don't forget these two unacclaimed amazing harp
players who were in the Boston/Cambridge area back in
the 60's. Pierre Beauregarde was a genius harmonica
player and probably still is. My spies tell me that he
is driving a cab in the Provincetown area and still
plays. Peter Ivers went to Harvard and was a very
unusual player and ended up being murdered in Los
Angeles some years ago. I wonder who else is hiding
out there waiting to be accknowledge.
