  • Pay attention kids, this is what makes America great.

  • At 42 seconds into the intro the harmonica wavers on the last cut out note, & I thought Big Mama has missed the note ! Then I've realized it wasn't big Mama, but the Harp itself which faulted for a half note-as it realized it was going to be a key part in a stellar performance & almost suffered stage fright at the knowledge it was accompanying one of the most powerful and genuine blues singers ever !

    What a proud little harmonica 2 one day be able to tell its children "I played with Big Mama" !
