Re: [Harp-L] Sugar popping Popper and Jason



I think the Sugar Blue connection may be stronger with Popper than with Ricci - and Popper obliquely acknowledges the connection; I don't recall Jason having done so.

By the way, Sugar is working on a new CD. I understand that he recently wrapped up the recording part.

To my ear, the playing of both JP and JR sound as if there is a strong Sugar Blue influence, whether either of them acknowledge it or not.  If we are talking about speed with strong technique and musical note selection, the discussion should properly  include Sugar Blue.  Credit where credit is due.
