To All,
I received the attached request from Eric Wright, son of Carl Wright, a former member of the Borrah Minevitch Harmonica Rascals. As noted in his request, Eric is hoping find people who knew his father, played with him, and able to furnish information and stories for a memorial service planned for May 8 in the Chicago area.
I remember hearing of Carl, and finally met him at the memorial service held for Hugh (Pud) McCaskey, also known as Stagg McMann, where he was included in the playing service. That was July 9, 1988. I heard very little of Carl since that time.
If anyone is able to assist Eric, please do so as soon as possible, so that the memorial service will truly be a memorable one for Carl.
Thanks everyone, Danny - -- Danny Wilson - Santa Clarita, CA BassHarp: http://www.bassharp.com George Fields: http://www.bassharp.com/fields.htm Dave McKelvy Trio: http://www.bassharp.com/mckelvy.htm Charlie Musselwhite: http://www.charlie-musselwhite.com Harmonica Gigs: http://www.bassharp.com/bh_itin.htm Ace of Harps (CD's, Bassharp Books): http://www.bassharp.com/ace.htm - --------------69E4AD42EB98FE4706BE3EF8 Content-Disposition: inline

Hello My name is Eric Wright, I'm the son of Carl Wright a former member of the Harmonica Rascals I think in the 40's and 50's. This week he'll be passing on and it prompted me to research more about his past and the Rascals. I saw a performance as a child which was probably about their last, I don't really know. I have several photos and possibly some print ads. The photo on Rascals #3 is Carl Wright I still have the Harmonica he's playing. I'm going to try to organize a memorial for Carl on the 8th of May somewhere in Chicago at a jazz club or something. I live in Los Angeles and will be in town on the 2nd. If you have any info about the Rascals in the later years I'd like to know about them or if there are any surviving members. I can be reached at 818-679-8704 or e-mail back at el~ysmatrix.net Eventually I can probably scan my photos and get them to you for your site as I go through his stored items. Thanks for your consideration Eric Wright
