1 free chicken before playing harp is 1 week of free chicken while playing harp-- taste the delicious chicken every time you play for the next week (the whole month if it has absorbent wood comb.

Chicks dig the long ball.

Harp players dig chicks.

Oprah likes the Colonel's free chicken.

Free your mind and the chicks will follow (hopefully with free chicken).

Cheesh - I am sorry...

That reminds me that I should learn to do chicken noises with the harp, like Captain Beefheart does in his song "Click Clack" (hey, another one hell of a player that's not on the list, by the way !).

I'm very interested by that kind of performance : trains, chickenhouses, fox chase... in my opinion, it's part of the blues thing, entertaining the audience and raising smiles as much as tears (I hope this phrase makes sense ?).

Snakes. Nice P-Funk reference.

Gloth, tragically, van Vliet doesn't play harp that often. Since I'm so lazy, how'd you like to compile a list of all the tracks where he does play?

Maybe compiling that list would be a good project for me.

I would be incapable to make such a list, because I have only two Beefheart albums plus a compilation. I love the albums "The Spotlight Kid" and "A Clear Spot", but a lot of what's on the other albums gets on my nerves actually.

Gloth, wash your mouth out! Trout Mask Replica has been my favourite album of all time since I first heard it in 1976. But I admit I don't listen to it much any more. I don't think there's any harp on it all tho. Strictly Personal has some (Gimme dat harp boy on a D harp). Glider is on Spotlight Kid (or is it Decals)? I think he uses a G harp on that one.

P.S. I promise I'll eat some chicken tonight, Chris, as a penitance for taking this off topic.
