[Harp-L] Re: Mark Hummel's Blues Harmonica Blowoff his weekend in SF
If no one else has posted this, for those interested this show is also
coming to Moe's Alley in Santa Cruz next Tuesday night. It's a little
funkier venue than Yoshi's but a great place and certainly more convenient
for a large part of the south bay area.

Hey y'all.
I gotta to put new tubes on my The Twin Red Knobs.
Do you have some suggestions about which tubes I could buy to have a
good tone and as less as possible feedback?
I like to use the driven channel with some gain and some volume...
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Got my Powerbender in the mail today. After half an hour of noodling
with it, I can see the possibilities and am interested in spending some
time on 12th position, which might work for me.
I like the Suzuki Harpmaster that came with the introductory package. It
appears to be the same as a Delta Frost, which I have played a lot.
My first opinion is that it might be better served to start someone out
with a G harp, rather than an A, but that opinion might change as I
progress with it.
I hope I can wrap my old brain around this tuning, since my progress on
Richter-tuned diatonic is very stagnant.
Steve Webb, in Minnesota now, but heading for Arizona for the month of
Feb. Maybe during that extended vacation time, I will get in some
serious harp practice.

Tonight, 1-11-11, I sang a laid back set that began with a song I have
titled "30 Years Of Busting Rocks to Sing This Song". It kind of sums up my
journey that kept me playing/living around the world doing music full time
without any management, label support, or much of anything but a drive, lots
of great listeners, a few clubs that believed in me, and great musicians
that dug my approach. Nowadays my body is often aching from all the manual
labor I did to eat when times were thin. You could always find the lowest
grunt work and come and go as you please. No committment, but man it was
hard on the body.
So here are tonights songs. You can hear them at the links below.
30 years of busting rocks to play this song
can't find no peace tonight
satified as I am
lazy snowy day swing
I'm learning life can be a ball

Anyone who's been to one of Hummel's Blowouts knows that it's a great show.
Hummel picks great players, backs them with a great band, and puts on
several hours of top-notch blues and R&B.
If you're in the neighborhood, I strongly recommend this event.

Just in time for the after Christmas sales, the Real Book for C
instruments Vol. IV is out. It has 400 tunes spread over 464 pages.
You can tell this volumn from the others by its pale blue cover.
Real Books feature a single line of natation -- melody line, lead sheet
style with chord names -- in a variety of genres.
This also looks like harmonica notation with the melody line and chord
names. All you have to do is add the numbers for your own instant tab.
When buying a fakebook, always get the "C instrument" version.
Otherwise, you run the risk of getting the Bb, Eb or bass edition which
is intended for tother instruments.
This format is also known as the fakebook format. It's the cheapest way
to get a collection of songs. You do your own math: 400 tunes for list
price of $26.96.
Hope this helps.

on their classic Fillmore East album, there is a bit of harp on
Stormy Monday and You Don't Love Me. but it wasn't a big
part of their sound, as evidence by the fact that on the original
release of the album, the harp part was edited out of Stormy Monday
altogether. only on the re-released Fillmore Sessions can you hear it.

That's why they have four volumes. Read the contents before you buy.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes
All this recent talk about which Chromatics to buy got me thinking
about trying the
Chromatic again for playing Blues. I have 2 key of C's, a Hohner CX-12
and a Hering
Velvet Voice 48. The CX-12 is too shrill for me compared to the Velvet
Voice. I like the
rich smooth sound of the Velvet Voice. However, the top and bottom
cover plates on the
Velvet Voice curled around toward the comb in the back of the harp
which narrows the
back opening suppressing the sound. I am sure this is by design.
The CX-12 has a very large opening in the back. Can the cover plates
on the Velvet
Voice be filed down with a Dremel tool or similar device to open up
the back? I am not
a customizer nor do I want to screw-up a perfectly good harp.
Any help would be appreciated.
Denny
