[Harp-L] Re: Woodstock/harp

["Patrick Lines" <plines@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Butterfield song is, " Morning Sunrise". No harp; it's his second 
generation band with the big horn section. The audio and video are very 
good. That said I'm also doing everything I can to maximize the experience. 
Quality 1080p TV, HDMI cable, upgrade DVD player and pumped through my 
surround sound system.
