Re: [Harp-L] RE: Book/CD teaching for BlueGrass

[Abner <cdgaldos@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you guys. 
When I first brought up the question I thought I would get very little in response. 
I have notice a lot of guys like to play Bluegrass and since the world is short of good harp player they ask a newb like me to sit in. 

I just love to play the harp.
