It is perhaps a testament to the harmonica's status in music that even its finest practitioners remain relatively obscure. Compiling a disc of harp players, as Yazoo has done here, isn't going to turn up a bunch of familiar names. As an early document of an instrument that remained essential to the blues well after it became an electric medium, however, Harmonica Blues is excellent. The instrument served numerous roles during the 1920s and 1930s (the period covered here), showing up in dance music, solo showcases, and blues; on street corners and in juke joints. An example of the instrument's novelty appeal is as good a place to start as any. Though Freeman Stowers' recorded conventional blues, he also relished in comic fare like "Railroad Blues."

Bidding his woman farewell as she steps aboard a train, Stowers builds to a blistering pace in his steam engine imitation. The harmonica's ability to bend notes and produce vibrato made it particularly expressive when applied to blues. It's dynamic range and unique timbre meant that it could cut through an acoustic ensemble in a manner similar to a violin or slide guitar. Harp men step into the spotlight for particularly spectacular solos on the otherwise tepid blues of "I Want You By My Side" and "My Driving Wheel." Both De Ford Bailey and Jaybird Coleman, the two players to gain some degree of notoriety during their prime, are represented by a cut each. Bailey, a popular performer on Nashville's Grand Ole Opry displays his unparalleled technique on "Davidson County Blues," while Coleman proves that he was an exceptional vocalist as well on "Man Trouble Blues." Together, the artists gathered on Harmonica Blues represent the precursors to the great harp players of the electric era like Little Walter, Junior Wells, and Sonny Boy Williamson.

Thanks Bro
NEWS FLASH: Vtwin was last seen driving his Harley up to a Biker Bar down in the deep south. He had a ghetto blaster playing "Born This Way". He has not been seen since. ;P)

On a more serious note about Lady Gaga - check out this web site about her that I stumbled across...


I have to pose the question, Born What Way? A dude?


Click here to see the shocking pictures of proof! http://www.ladygagaisaman.com/


So... Is Lady GaGa A man? Well one thing's for sure, whether she is or she isn't, she sure needs to explain that bulge she keeps between her legs. Some of the photo's you're going to see are shocking, and they are not photoshopped or doctored in any way. If you can explain that bulge as anything other then her have "man parts" then you should surely be her publicist. Me Personally.. I think Lady GaGa Is A MAN!!! And whether she is or she isn't it's clear that Hollywood and the paparazzi can't get enough of this celebrity, many people contact me telling me how great of a joke site this, or how they love my funny site. This is not a joke site or a funny site, this is a coming of age tale about Lady GaGa this biggest "queen" in pop music. Maybe we could get Robert Pattinson or Channing Tatum to take the lead "male role" to play Lady GaGa in an epic biography? Now don't get me wrong, we think the fact that Lady GaGa Is A Man, or might be a man doesn't change the fact that he/she is a great artist. Hell - we just want to give any man who can sing like that his due praise!

@ vtwincube88 Actually she was quoted as saying she/he was born a hermaphrodite.

Hey night did you think you would get so many comments about Ladt Gaga on one of your posts? ;P)
Night don't care. We can start a blog here. Whadda think? Oh yeah, let me click the plus sign again. Almost forgot hehe
If Lady Gaga really is a freemartin then send it round...I'm up for it!


And long may this thread continue
