Boots Randolph's rendition of Yakety Sax was a corner stone song for me and my deciding to pursue harp on a different level . It opens up elements of Rock-Jazz-Country Western music , it's a cross over hit that is world re known .
Learn this one and get a lesson in syncopation .
I met Boots at the Crazy Horse ( was in Anaheim now it's gone ) a huge country western venue in the southern California area .
I also met and pereformed there with Brian Berliner a fantastic violin player who can cover anything , I learned loads from these two guys one night ( on different occasions mind ya ) .
A person who can master country western harp alla Boots is miles ahead of those who don't .
I'm a talkin bout grace and speed here fellows and gals :)
Easy All And Happy 4th of July USA !

Hurricane Ramon
