Hi gang,
Just spent an hour chatting live with Jerry Portnoy at Vince Cheney's "The Blues Site."
What a gas! You shoulda been there.
Jerry has a wry humor and was very gracious, even when surrounded by rabid harp phreaks. I asked him about techniques he used on his Mood Room CD (no overblows) and got insite into his years with Muddy Waters.
Many thanks to Vince (Vinnie C) for setting these chats up and making them happen. A great opportunity for a guy like me.
If you want to read what was exchanged, I think Vince has already archived the session: http://thebluessite.com
Stay tuned for announcements of other upcoming blues harp guests, including Mark Hummel, Gary Primich and Taj Mahal. Whew!
