Lyrics

This is a "Solo Harmonica lift" from my song, "King Barlow", from my "Live" CD "Black & White: Live at Cowtown Ballroom 9/11/1972.....created for listening pleasure and media submissions

Well done harmonica tune

Nicely done, good skill in the harp playing, great feel and movement to the piece, sets a happy mood--- could easily be used in the proper tv or movie scene..

Great playing, great intro.

Definitely a harmonica solo, mood is clear, playing is solid sell it already.

You blow a nice harp!

Diggit man! It's nice to hear some free-form harp improv. You're a good player and this recording shows that you've done your homework. Nice development both melodic and rhythmic. I particularly like the reverb 'ring' in the phrases near the end of the track. It gives it an extra dash of rawness, even an 'ambient, soundtrack' sound.
