I posted this two days ago but somehow it didn't meet a lot of interest. I thought this may have been due to the simple thread title, "Corky Siegel". So I just repost it. :) Here is the link to the other thread.

I think it's wonderful match of the harp, the quartett and the drums - the melody just won't leave my head.



There are some more vids (including a bio of Corky Siegel) in the other thread.

I didn't have time to give it a good listen the other day. I like it. It's kind of weird though; with a harmonica I kind of expect a more 'fiddle' style violin work. It's got me wondering what makes a fiddle a fiddle and not a violin in terms of the scales you'd play, or is it maybe the other violins playing underneath it.

I can't find it,but somewhere in my record collection is Corky playing with a full orchestra. I think it was on the Deutch Grammaphone label.

Yeah I referenced it in the other thread "3 pieces for Blues Band and Symphony Orchestra" - great stuff! It was re-released on CD a short while ago. I got a copy on Amazon after years of searching in vain for the vinyl.
