Re: [Harp-L] Old Time Harmonica

Thanks a bunch Burke!
Needless to say you are all inspiring me to go on and maybe do a couple 
more!

The first part surely reminds of "Clinch Mountain Backstep". I also wrote 
that in the notes under the clip I believe. Hey, talking of inspiration 
Burke, if you could use some of that you should listen to track 20 on that 
"Southern Old Time Harmonica"-cd. Its not listed on the sleeve (nor is track 
12 & 19 ?!) but that's Graham's version of the "Clinch Mountain Backstep". 
Nice!

Yeah, that's weird isn't it. The Huang doesn't sound so bad. I tried the 
other one as well, the 'Star Performer' but that didn't work for me. Like 
this Silvertone better although its volume is really low compared to other 
harps. But for me, if I want to practice a lot, it's a pretty decent réally 
cheap harp to blow holes into (hey, we have a crisis here in Europe you 
know).   Btw. don't y'all go buy that harp now otherwise the price might go 
up! ;-)

Corncerning the banjo, I'm a 3-finger (very much Scruggs) picker. Do a very 
little bit of clawhammer, but not so often. And No, I'm lazy ye know, if I 
sing or play harp I don't play banjo at the same time. Too much of an 
adventure, exactly. I've got a rack and might try it in the future though

See Ya
