Twelve perfectly chosen great songs by an exquisite singer and blower gifted with an amazing technique, tone, and elegance This is one of those very special albums one should never miss (unless you do not like harmonica) It is the first album of Big Harp George, a man aged fifty-nine who has got a really high cultural baggage, law teacher at Hastings, graduated in anthropology from the University of Berkeley, ‘cum laude’ doctor in law by Harvard, besides other different masters His journalistic works have been published in such prestigious newspapers as the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal or the Washington Post Such a prominent man could not be more than a wonderful harmonica player, in particular of the chromatic one (in this cd he exclusively plays chromatic) and he does it in a totally exciting and genuine way, with the old flavour of the most genuine blues and following the traces of George Harmonica Smith and Rod Piazza Big Harp George is backed by Chris Burns keyboards, Kid Andersen guitar and bass, Little Charlie Baty guitar, Rusty Zinn guitar, Raja Kawar drums and Michael Peloquin sax This is a wonderful amazing and terrific recording that should not go unnoticed for any blues fan, especially all West Coast blues sound lovers
