[Harp-L] re: Steve Baker



While on the subject of Steve Baker: He did several records w/ Chris Jones that deserves wider attention. Good stuff. 
  I can particularly recommend "Slow roll", from -95, I think. A really refreshing take on the harmonica/guitar blues duo format, w/ some seriously great harmonica playing.
 
  Also, Steve´s Harp handbook help me unlock some persistent conundrums (if that´s what you do w/ them ...) back in the day, when I was beginning to realise that you could actually retune harps yourself. Thanks for that.
  Steve´s a valuable resource on this forum.
