 The show i saw them at was the Shaboo Inn, which was in Willimantic, CT.
I remember Ola Dixon was on drums, Mudcat, Little Anthony, Ronnie Earl Horvath
and Sugar Ray. Ray is a monster singer and an unsung harp player, he doesn't get enough
attention IMHO. Big Walter has tone and phrasing to die for. He really did not look
well, but when he raised the harp to his lips and played, he blew me away.

Hey Hash - very interesting. That would have been awesome to have seen. I
love Ray's tone on that CD (and his great phrasing).

I recall that Mike Welch said Ray used the Princeton on at least this recent
CD:
