Re: [Harp-L] music

I agree with Michael.
 
Charlie has turned me on to a few interesting musical performers/sounds. He 
 sent me a transcription book of Chet Baker's scat solos. I got him 
interested in  Miles Davis through the Elevator to the Gallows soundtrack that 
Miles did  in France for Louis Malle - (mostly improvs over a minor blues 
progression, so  it sounds very 3rd and 4th position.)
 
To let you know what kind of a person Charlie is, we had been in a  Chet 
Baker chat mode for a few months. From out of the blue, I received a letter  
from Charlie w/a picture inside. He had stopped in Amsterdam and taken a 
picture  of the memorial plaque outside the hotel where Chet was found dead 
after  tumbling to the sidewalk.
 
I can't remember which more recent release of his was a blues CD. After a  
few listenings I realized that it was a complete blues CD w/out one song 
done in  that "shuffle" style.
 
As time goes on, more people will realize what a treasure Mr.Musselwhite  
is.

I think  the closest the harp world has to Miles is Musselwhite.  He
changes CD  to CD.
