[Harp-L] Re: Harmonica Frank Floyd on Youtube
I was fortunate to meet Frank Floyd in around 1976 when he was part
of a touring folk music review put together by Mike Seeger. The
afternoon before the concert Frank was hanging out outside the
Student Union at UC Santa Barbara (where I was a student), and he not
only demonstrated the same technique shown in the film but also
pulled out a second harp for a "duet", one in jaw, one played using
his nose. Really something to see, good thing he didn't have a cold
at the time. He was a real character.
There is an old LP on a tiny Chicago label, Barrelhouse? he did when
rediscovered, and I don't know if that's ever made CD, copies of the
record go for high dollars on ebay when they turn up.
