Loved this album since I picked it up in the mid 90s Paul Black and the Flip Kings - King Dollar. It was on the short-lived House of Blues label, which recorded some excellent and off-beat albums before suddenly folding

Andy Linderman on harp - listen to how he meshes with the slide guitar, shapes the tones, hits the blue notes.. just perfect accompaniment playing

Westside Andy is a great player who doesn't get nearly enough attention. Check out his work with the Mel Ford band as well. Always tasty, great tone.

I hope to meet him in person some day so I can tell him in person.

Being a big fan of slide guitar,Mr Black really delivers.Westside's harp is a sound I strive for,but ain't there yet,tone from way deep.and like greg said tasty phrasing.Pat Ramsey Blues disciples do this tune also,but more lighthearted.Thanks for the post Gambler.

Nice stuff! I actually stumbled across him back in 2009 and started a thread which has some additional clips and talk:

As a huge Paul Black fan... I instantly became a fan of Westside Andy's playing. That CD is so beautifully recorded, Andy has tone & chops for dozens (as they say in KY).
