[Harp-L] Re : Area Code 615

[maurice richard libby <blues@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Amen to that brother.

he was the first non-blues harp player that made 
me go "WHOA!" I still find little McCoy-ism's in 
my playing (be very aware that I am in no way 
saying that I play that good--no way--but there 
are little things that pop up in my modest attempts at playing.

Mind you, he played blues very well--in fact 
didn't he say that the reason he played country 
over blues was that there was more money in it--I 
seem to remember that from an interview back in the day.

Thanks for the link, my area code 615 lp has long since bit the dust.
