[Harp-L] Tony Eyers Trio clocked at 145

[Tony Eyers <tony@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Tony Eyers Trio have recorded Goldrush, the classic Bill Monroe 
bluegrass tune. You can see it at https://youtu.be/sJREryOweyM

Once again we've used the low G Hohner Thunderbird, tuned to Major 
Cross. We raised the speed to 145 bpm for this one, possible only 
because of lead instrument modifications by Australian harmonica 
customiser Neil Graham. We were lucky to escape the attention of the New 
South Wales highway patrol. Safety officers are now inspecting our 
instruments, their clearance will precede any future high speed outings.

We play the lead instruments in 3rd position. With Major Cross tuning, 
this suits modal tunes like Goldrush. The Major Cross sound here is very 
different sound to standard Richter 3rd position.
