Re: [Harp-L] Subtle Harmonica on traditional Blues

Sounds real good. Harp fits the music.

However,,I think the video could have been improved with a few special
effects,,like when Rosey Grier (the football star) was in that movie, "The
Thing with Two Heads", where he played one of the heads
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thing_with_Two_Heads). I think it would
have been nice if that would have been included in this clip. One head
playing harp, and the other, singing the lyrics,,but you'd have to be extra
careful that when you wag your head back and forth to the music you didn't
hurt the other guy. Also you'd need another pair of hands,,or maybe a
special harp rack,,for just one of the heads.

Forget it.
