SUMMARY:Professor Harp's Classic Blues & Rock 'n' Roll / Potluck
DESCRIPTION:Amazing Potluck Concert with Live Blues & Rock ‘n’ Roll with Boston’s Own:\nProfessor Harp\nAlthough born and raised as Hugh Holmes of Boston\, Mass.\, the emanations from his harmonica and vocals make it clear that Professor Harp has the blues of Texas and the whole wide Delta coursing through his veins. \nThe Professor was a rock ‘n’ roll drummer until ’69\, when the Boston blues revival and a sterling performance he caught of blues harmonica great George Allen ‘Harmonica’ Smith\, combined to lure him away from drums and into a full court press on the blues harp. “Undaunted!” he brags\, by the vicissitudes of his life as blues man\, front man\, every kind of man\, Professor Harp puts forth his commanding presence and exceptional talent\, night after night. \nPrimarily playing a sparse\, yet full-sounding brand of no-nonsense\, no-frills Texas style blues\, Professor Harp specializes in what he calls\, ‘roots music’. “It’s whatever makes me feel good and moves me\, so to speak.” Indeed it has evolved while continuing to move audiences for decades. \nUnder the influence of many diverse blues greats\, Professor Harp has developed a robust playing style. He often utilizes the Leslie rotating-speaker sound system to give his harp a Hammond organ timbre\, while he alternately and simultaneously employs the standard or traditional ‘electrified’ blues harp. The Professor tops this off by singing the blues with an infectious fervor\, supported at his strictest insistence by only top-flight musicians on guitar\, bass\, and drums. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n				Bluesky\n			\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email
