Re: [Harp-L] Re: Taylor Hicks (response to Bobbie) -cont'd



Wouldn't it be a pisser if his prior blues/soul/harp CD did better as a result of his success than some non-blues/soul/harp CD that his handlers decide is what the public "wants". That would be great. 

I'm still waiting to see just what they have him put out on his first cd (he will get one whether he wins or loses tonight) and if it will have any harp. I think he presents a new paradox to the AI folks and industry marketers - do they style his new offering to target the 20-somethings and below, or their parents? I think to the former he still represents an interesting curiousity, I'm not sure they'd buy CDs with the type of music he's done on the show (certainly now Swanee River, haha).

Hopefully the diversion will be over soon and we can get back to more interesting harp content, but this is an interesting diversion. It would be good to learn more about the harp side of him.
