Always knew Robben was one of the best on guitar, but Mark is brilliant on the harp too.

Marc Ford for my money is the most interesting,emotive, exciting and inventive player going bar none. Also to quote his brother Pat " there's this filial connection" which makes the band so great.

Laying in the back of an old jeepney in Manila harbor Philippines I was listening to a blues tune on the radio,and I thought I recognised the style.Mark Ford of course.An international talent indeed.So glad to have been introduced to the blues through these three.Steve was my brother -in -law.May he and Jennifer rest in peace.Michael

I heard the Ford Bros play this song on the radio a few months ago and looked this up on You Tube. How can I get the recording of it for my iPod?

Hey! Anybody out there who knows the harpkey he`s playing in? 2. Position?

Need help pretty soon. He`s awsome!!!!!!

Oh well, really inspired all around. Of course the harmonica playing is outstanding but the ensemble is just perfect.

I happily got hip to the Ford bros. in the early 70's thanks to either KSAN or KPFA in the Bay Area, and this is one of the first songs I learned to play in the late 60's. I used to go see Mark play at Barney Steele's in Redwood City every week. WOW! He rocked it then and he's still rockin' it now. Thanks Mark, you just keep inspiring me to cut it loose and let it go!

If you have never seen Mark live, treat yourself before you leave this planet. First time I saw him I just stood there with my mouth open thinking you can't do that with a harp but yet there he was right in front of me. Beyond words when he's live. TRUST ME !!!

I totally agree.... Mark Ford is terrific.. I like him and Studebaker John the best

[SianReynolds]

Mark Ford is a fantastic harmonica player. One of the best in blues/rock.

+1 on Mark's version of Summertime. If you like music you will appreciate it. If you play harp it will make your jaw drop
