[Harp-L] "The Free-lovin" Bob Dylan

["Henderson, Peter" <Henderson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not that its even remotely important, but when Dylan asks for an E harp
and you hear what sounds like several harps hitting the stage, he picks
one up and says "its an F" and then move his capo up a fret does the
song in F. Now I have plenty E harps, as bluegrassers love the key of B,
its F# harps that I don't own.

As for the hygiene issues, this was back in the day where whatever you
caught, you could cure with a pill, 
hence "The Free-lovin" Bob Dylan ;-0

I think it's weird that multiple people had "E" harps to throw up on
stage.  I have dozens of harmonicas but I don't think own one in the key
of E.
