This is my 1st attempt at a blues standard,I picked Paul Butterfield cause i found a jamtrack that had a version of Born in chicago my harp teacher said i should try and learn some blues standards,i havent learned it really cause it probelly has not a buttfield lick in it,but ive never been able to play covers like the originals on guitar all these years, it probelly be the same on harp but,it was fun trying and thats all that matters to me.i know the purist probelly be like what the hell but,in time i hope to learn the proper licks for it,but until then i have some hobo licks in it lol.peace dont hurt me to much,I added some simple guitar lead to the jamtrack cause well i thought it needed it,all i have is a acoustic but had some overdrive added.and my my horse vocals lol peace and harp on fellow harpsters

practice its more fun to butcher up the originals,pisses the purists off lol,Its funny how harp is looked upon i posted this at the same time on acid planet got a review saying man that harp is awsome,of course hes not a harp player,but as a student of the harp i am nervouse with this cause i know there aint a Butterfield lick in it and every ones knows it here. Its easy to sound good to a audience that hasnt been exsposed to much harp,but i would probelly get gut shot in a juke joint down south with this lol
