[Harp-L] Little Walter



E harp, key of B... Take notice, Little Walter we know does his warble with 
 is hands and not his head, said he got dizzy.. He Also plays and moves the 
 harp to his mouth, or 50/50, I did not see him with stagnant hands and his 
mouth  all over the harp. Something I just learned and it feels right when 
playing  along with the song. You take it in small pieces. The old fashioned 
way will  take quite a long while, however with a slow down machine it 
would cut down the  time 10 fold. Thanks HB for that... Another important key to 
playing this  stuff authentically is wearing out the 3 blow as either your 
start note, end  note, wherever. It just allows you to play with that 
phrasing LW could pull off  at any time. Not the same 8 bars of playing throughout 
the entire 3 - 4 minutes.  I had heard there was a man in Europe who has 
tons of Little Walter live but  will not release it for whatever reason. Maybe 
he passed away. Does anyone know  who he is, was and the story behind that.
