Re: [Harp-L] The birthday present (MY opinion)

Thanks Joe for the kind words (and Penny says thanks too!). I'm so 
thrilled that you like the album and it was so great to finally meet you 
at SPAH and have a chance to play music together! Coming from such an 
excellent player as yourself, I'm practically speechless. Having made it 
to the top of your personal list, even if it turns out to be very 
short-lived, is something I will treasure always.
For anyone who's interested there are (still) full length samples that 
you can get to through either of our websites (www.pennyhanna.com or 
www.slidemanslim.com) and the actual CD is available via cdbaby:

And yes, list member Steve Malerbi does fit into the equation -- he's 
done a great job on my instruments (and he's a hell of a chromatic 
player himself, as I found out at SPAH).
- Slim.

You could go to his website for samples. I think it may be under 
Penny's name. Did I mention that Steve Melerbi is Slim's harp 
technician. Steve has hands of gold as I have played the 64 super X 
and have never had one as responsive and sweet as his. Now I know that 
most everything comes from the player, BUT it sure helps a superior 
player to have a superior chromo, so, Steve HAS to have fit into the 
equation somewhere.  My opinion

Bring a co-signer, bring your pink slip, aww he!!, stay home and save 
a bunch of money, OR...you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll kiss 95 bucks 
goodbye.  :)

Wow, Joe!
That's a statement! And done with the eloquence we love!
I'll check Slim closer after classes have started.
All the best,
Fernando
