Re: [Harp-L] Stymie on harmonica



Uh-huh....maybe, but Adler would have been only 18, so I have my doubts. Besides, the playing isn't as clean as Adler's. A lot of drippy overshots..very much in the Minevitch idiom of "Schlepping for speed"

. As Minevitch would have been 31, I went with Minevitch. I tried to figure out if it could have been anyone other than those 2, but at that time (1933), there weren't a whole lot of harmonica players around that were all that good ...at least at THIS sort of thing.

I would love to be proven wrong as I am that interested.

At 12:54 in, Stymie "plays" harmonica. Great stuff - wonder who
really played it? (Minnevitch? Adler?)

enjoy,
