Re: [Harp-L] Harp with bluegrass
I still have that "Strictly Instrumental" LP after all these decades. Tunes include Pick Along, Nothing To It, Evelina, Jazzing, Liberty, Tammy's Song, John Hardy, Lonesome Ruben, Spanish Tow-Step, Careless Love, and Bill Cheatham. You can hear samples for this LP at:
