Re: [Harp-L] Mitch Kashmar Live CD..................

[hashbb@xxxxxxx]

 I will say Kim Wilson is without a doubt my favorite
modern old style player. I would rather listen to 
him too. I will say I think the whole point of music
and harp playing is being missed here. You need
to enjoy a player for what he does, not because he
or she doesn't measure up to another player. Music
is not a competition, and never should be. If you enjoy
the music, great; if not move on to the next thing to for
your listening pleasure. I have known Mitch for many
years. He is a great vocalist and harp player, and I doubt
he ever thought of trying to sound or be what Kim Wilson
is. That is not his musical vision. I have the live CD and I like
alot of the playing on it. I also liked Nickels and Dimes.
Crazy Mixed up World I thought the band and arrangements
we're weak. THat's my opinion, but it doesn't make any of this music
less great for someone else.

I didn't take what Iceman said as a cut or directed to Mitch who is, without
question, an outstanding player?  I took it as there are lots of guys that
are getting close to Kim but day in and day out Kim is tops and in many
people's opinion, it's a race for second place. I share that opinion.

For clarity, this was the Iceman's opinion, not greggstone's.  Mitch  is a
very special player who always thrills me.  Of course, everyone is  entitled
to their opinion.
