Anyone know who may have played the harp on this Hawkwind track. It's good.

this was actually my first exposure to folk rock harmonica. i learned to play this before i got the mel bay books, or listened to blues or AOR.
its dave brock he also recorded "bring it on home" as a solo busker, in which he plays acoustic, simple electric glissando slide and harmonica.
any hawkwind post 77 is junk.

What harmonica did Dave Brock of Hawkwind use on "Hurry On Sundown"? I have heard that he made some LP's of this sort a few years ago. If this is true, where can I get hold of them?
I used a Hohner Echo Super Vamper in F Sharp on "Hurry On Sundown". Yes I did take part in a collective album of such music some years ago. It came out on Immediate and was called "Blues Anytime, Volume 2"
It featured people like Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Tony McPhee, Savoy Brown, Johnne Kelly etc and I contributed four tracks with the Dharma Blues Band, which consisted of myself on harmonica and vocals, boogie pianist Mick King and Luke Francis on harmonica and guitar. Luke was originally with the animals and has become a popular entertainer in Finland. When Immediate collapsed the tapes were brought by RCA, who re-issued them as a double album called "An Anthology Of British Blues Artists". But these records are no longer available - DAVE BROCK Hawkwind

Thanks Fred. Bring it on Home is good too. Only just discovered this. Thought Hawkwind were all Silver MAchine type tracks.

british blues harp is usually not praised much. but brits are very harmonica freindly and will let you up on stage to play. usually every british band has at least two members who play harmonica. sonny boy williamson had alot to do with this, and youll hear these guys trying to sound like sonny specifically with a touch of bob dylan sloppiness.
