Ok...
I AM Biased...
Darren is a Kiwi, I'm an Expat Kiwi, Terry is a Kiwi...
But I have to say...
Just listen to the absolute LACK of fancy gear (mics,amps,pedals) and tell me that Terry can't play???
In my humble opinion, here's a harp playin' antipodean livin' MFER Badass.
Call me wrong,Call me right, I'll say he's a badass ALLNIGHT.
Over N Out.

Hi graharmonica
Yep, he's playing into a glass grabbed off a punter about then I think. Wandering around the bar playing before that. On this tune he is just playing acoustically through my little vocal PA. When amplified he uses an old Astatic mic into a Fender Blues Junior or a Peavey Delta Blues 1x15 for bigger gigs. No effects.

I know a great Kiwi musician by the name of David Godman (Davey G) Harmonica/Sax, lost touch with him, he is from Ruawai North Island. It seems like blues players there are few and far between (at least in Davey G's neck O the woods so to speak) hope he is well.

Indigo!
Man, I have not seen Dave in YEARS!
Dave is a real character, clever musician and one helluva good guy.
Wow, It has been a LONG time and a world away since I sat down and played with Dave.
Cheers

Yeah, a better man than Davey G would be some kinda person, his playing is only surpassed by his kindness. Last I spoke with him his parents were having health issues, I pray everything has worked out for them. Ruawai is one helluva long way from Florida.
Thank you much for the video Indigo.
