Day eighty-seven/365. It may seem strange, but it's part of my strategy for stress reduction. I get together with a bunch of men, all of whom are at least twenty years older than I am. We all bring our harmonicas, plus the accessories we want to show off. We jam together, mostly songs from my parents' generation. We coach each other, sharing tips and tricks we've developed ourselves. None of them knows any hymns or contemporary praise songs. I know some of their music from my exposure to it when I worked in nursing homes.
But, we have a great time. I look forward to doing it again four weeks later. And, I forget the stuff that stresses me.
I shot a harmonica for TTV tuesday. I was playing around with a flash. it is weird because the flash is off the digital camera which is technically above the harmonica and the flas was directed kinda straight down and this effect was acchieved.
"Unemployed members of the Chorley Harmonica Band, who played the opening of the new Occupational Centre at Moss Cottages, Chorley today". Chorley Guardian - 24th February, 1937.
This special harmonica had it's own case and was
used on two tracks. It was modelled after old harmonicas
from way back. The "horns" were to amplify the sound
and each horn was for two holes on the harp.
Looked like a christmas door knocker.
