[Harp-L] Boatsman, Blackberry Blossom: damaged file replaced

[Clarke Comollo]

I live in VT and knew them when they lived in Bennington VT. I had to beg them to sell me the CD as it was their last one. I recently Googled and found Fred Lantz living in NH where he is very involved with Music

He was making custom harmonicas in that era.  I bought a C Marine band, did not care for the tuning and retuned it to a natural minor.  I've been playing that harmonica hard for 20 years now and have not touched it since I retuned it. An amazing harmonica. Last I looked he was still doing custom harmonicas but  haven't tried to contact him via his website.
