Leon is a mysterious character. Harmonica content: He DOES play harp.  
But he is younger than I. Appeared on the 'national' scene in 77 in  
Toronto..IF you can consider Toronto as 'THA scene'.

My favorite is Lazy Bones. (there's harp on it). As for Hard to say  
Goodbye, the first 4 notes are the same as Londonderry Aire (oh Danny  
Boy). A good bending exercise.
