Re: [Harp-L] On the road again

[EGS1217@xxxxxxx]

Despite  Elizabeth's confidence I'm pretty sure that's NOT Alan Glen. If it 
is it's an  exceptionally youthful (and hirsute!) version compared to 
today's model...  sorry Alan if you're listening!

There's a comment on the YouTube  posting that identifies the harpist as 
Billy Miskimmin (whom I don't know) -  this sounds more likely to me.

Jim

okay, Jim...I believe I mentioned that I'd settled on Alan Glen as the  
harpist after reading the same YouTube postings?  ....I did check out  Billy 
Miskimmin. As far as I know his hair (speaking of hirsuteness, lol) has  
remained the same light blonde colour throughout. I pretty much ruled him out  
after comparing the three men and their playing styles too. 
 
Here're some photos of him from his myspace site bearing no resemblance at  
all to the guy Steve posted the video of (others may not be able to see 
them,  but you might). His site refers to him as a young player and I presume 
the  photos are recent. You tell me?

You haven't yet convinced me :)
 
however..I did just find a video from a show at BBKing's from 2007 when he  
played with the Yardbirds, maybe it'll give a better idea (the lights can 
make  one's hair look darker)...but can it change the harp playing?

anyway: here's his myspace site for anyone wishing to hear his recorded  
harp playing...some good songs there:'God on their lips, Blood on their 
hands',  and 'Deja Vu All Over Again' are from his debut album.

I enjoy puzzles. This is a fun one. :)
