RE: [Harp-L] Harp on Steelyard Blues

[Jim Fitting <jfitting@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, I believe it is all Paul Butterfield. On the soundtrack album he is the only harmonica player credited. There are some great songs on there written by Nick Gravenites and Michael Bloomfield. It came out in '72 just a year before the "Better Days" album and has some of the the same feel as that album including some vocals by Maria Muldaur.

> Styeelyard Blues is a zany movie from 1973 with some Great harp http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070731/    The harp playing is credited to Butterfield, which is quite apparent at points, but also some great country, folk, funk, etc., which really didn't sound like any Butter I'd heard before.   Was it all Paul?  If so, I'm even more impressed!
