Hi, I just wanted to share with you guys a vid I have put up on my Oxharp site of West Weston Playing George Harmonica Smiths Telphone Blues.
I thought that his tone and delivery were fantastic so I wanted to share it with you guys who dont subscibe.
The song Key is in A and he is playing through a Fender Bassman 59 RI(Stock) with a Boss DD3 delay and a Turner Challenger BX with an old shure green Bullet element really hot.
He plays using his own customzed MB on a G harp 2nd pos and then an A harp 1st Position with a pint glass.
He also plays all Toungue Block even the 1st position top end (I know it sound s impossible)
Hope you like it also.
here is the link.

I'm a HUGE West Weston fan! I understand he may put out a CD this year. Some people may say he sounds pretty "old school" but, I think he is very inventive and full of surprises if you really listen.
I'm surprised I haven't worn out some of his stuff on YouTube from watching it so often. Ha!

Hi I have just ordered 4 harps for my Birthday.
They are Customized Marine Bands and they sound great.
He does a lot of work on them and when I receive them I will let you know on this thread.
Or go and listen and find out what he does on his My space site.
