[Harp-L] Re: Better? (Jonathan Ross)



Right on Jonathan! Talk about fast, watch that cymbal go for 3 1/2 minutes! I tried and could not keep my foot moving fast enough! Pros, please, what key harp is the good Dr. Ross playing in that oft discussed Mama Thornton clip? He sounded great and I know tone is part of it but I also suspect he had a different key harp. John lee did pretty good for a while then went a little weak on volume and I suspect he was suffering from the same thing I do, too many draw notes and not expelling enough air.

I for one have never heard anyone at any convention that could play  
better than either of these:

As good, maybe, but not certainly not better.
