Re: [Harp-L] Little Walter clip



And how quietly they played,fantastic for a harp player ,those were the days.
Almost acoustic harp in an amped band..
Yes hound dog did have six fingers (polydactylism) on each hand but apparently cut off the one on his right hand with a razor blade on night while drunk.
Now theres a good blues story.

  Beautiful clip.  The thing that stood out to me was the amount of rhythm
built into that solo.  Walter almost didn't need a drummer.
  A little blues trivia; if I'm not mistaken, guitarist Hound Dog Taylor
was born with six fingers on each hand.
