I am a fan of Edgar and Johnny Winter, so I thought I would share that I just heard that Edgar is releasing a new album – Rebel Road this summer. Johnny will be on it playing guitar with Slash. Clint Black will be playing Harp. Edgar will be touring with Ringo Starr later this year.

I hope that Johnny and Clint come along for the free ride.

I’d like to see if I can get tickets when it runs through my neck of the woods this summer.

Randy at Genesis Harmonicas is taking harps and re-engineering them using multicolored Corian.

The results are amazing, visually. Jason Ricci has endorsed them.

It looks like you can buy the combs separately or buy a completely rebuilt harp. There are no prices on the website, which tells me that I can’t afford them.

I found this harp mic mentioned by Chris on fossy7.blogspot.com. He uses a rack and found this mic that attaches to the harp. I’ve never seen this before, although I’ve used a Strnad mic and liked it. I’m looking forward to reading his reaction to it.

Here is an interesting discussion of the Sabine feedback eliminator.

I almost bought one of these and now I’m glad that I didn’t.

If you out near Shawnee Kansas Tuesday, May 6, stop by the Mountain Music Shoppe for Tulsa Read’s Americana Harmonica Seminar. It looks like it will be a blast.

Check out Tulsa Read’s Website – He plays through a T-3.
