[Harp-L] a summation



Over the last few days, people have discussed reading music, whether
harmonica music was appreciated by lay people, and whether just playing
riffs and having fun was a reasonable practice strategy.

Then Mr. Bonfiglio graciously posted some his work on YouTube.

Yes you can play riffs have fun and play in a garage band. yes you can fake
Little Walter riffs everyone can reach a level of competency. But if you
want harmonica to transcend its niche as a novelty act--follow Robert's
example.
Some of us are hoping Robert will take a break from classical music to cover
the works of the Neville Brothers, George Clinton, and Jimmy Cliff.

I'm still stunned.
