[Harp-L] JohnSebastian Jr



Just remembered--the first time I realized that John Sebastian Jr. was a real ahrp player was on an LP that was essemtially outtakes of up and coming your musicians. The Lovin Spoonfull was the best know band on the record. There were a couple of Butterfield tracks on it too. I was knocked out a) that the Spoonful did blues ( I know the bands name is a blues reference), and b0 that Sebastian could hold his own side by side with Butterfield.

I agree with harpgawd that it stands the test of time and then some. I don't
hear harp like that anywhere these days.
