YOWSER BABIES! High school dances with Brown Sugar. Weekends at the Dirty Bird (with extra-curriculars in the basement). The summertime outdoor festivals. Many nights where the music probably saved us from even worse self-destruction. For listener and player alike. Thanks to ALL who have finally been uploading some Paul. Greatly appreciate it.
Brings back soooo many memories.. Dancing, carrying on...From Portland to Seattle, Bend & all points in between ... You got Chainsaw Mesi, then Jones & Don holding the bottom & DK tickling the ivory's
Great song from a great, great player. He had all it takes. And then some more. About harp in this song: I think PdL played 1-pos. very seldom, and neither did he in this. The last harp solo is played in 3. pos. with Ab harp. Try it, it solves some voicing problems u may have noticed. And here´s a funny secret: Paul uses tongue-blockin technic AND he uses it "both sides" of tongue, left&right...(anyway when he plays 3.pos). He was just suberb.
The song is in Bb. Paul starts out playing 2nd position on an Eb harp, then, around 3:03 he switches to 1st postion with a Bb harp.....Hope this helps...Thanks for posting this.... Paul was a friend of mine......
