RE: [Harp-L] That Irish Stuff

["James Conway" <americonway@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ol' Steve Shaw is a mighty blower of the jig and reel, himself! Thanks for 
the kind words, Steve....right back at ya, my English harp-bro! Yeah, these 
days with all the babies running around the house, I barely have time to 
lurk, not to mention posting!

Wow...Kinsella, Powers, and Epping...that's an Irish harp attack, alright! 
To this day,one of the most amazing things I've ever heard, is Rick Epping 
blowing neck-rack harp and playing concertina simultaneously. During a tune, 
you'll hear him do a bunch of things such as: both instruments playing 
melody, harp chords/concertina melody, concertina chords/harp melody, 
harmony lines from both, harp drones, concertina drones.......amazing!

By the way, if any harpers are ever in Chicago, come down to the Atlantic 
Bar and Grill, 5062 N. Lincoln, on Sundays for a traditional Irish music 
session.

cheers,
James
