"Whose Charlie McCoy"
"Get me Charlie McCoy"
"Get me a young Charlie McCoy"
"Whose Charlie McCoy"

It's said (I heard second hand from Charlie himself, on Harp-L) that as he got older, the Nashville record company suits replaced him with a younger (prettier) harp player (imo, evidence shows Chet Atkins' protege Terry McMillan).  And the music suffered, for sure.  I cringe when i hear Terry trying to play Charlie's licks, altho in fairness to him, he WAS a decent harp player.  Now the top Nashville harp cat is Jellyroll Johnson.  But they sure don't feature harp in new music today the way they did when Charlie was king.
