45th and Market was home for original Bandstand show. My father worked at the old WFIL studios there.
My Dad took me along with him to Dick Clarks house for a tech meeting--it was the first time I saw a color TV , I still remember how amazed I was-I was probably about 4 years old at the time some 60 years ago

Diggs. Thanks so much. Any tips from seasoned harp players are welcome. As a relatively new (4 yrs) player, I've worked on various aspects of technique. I've got the tongue/rhythmic component down well (don't remember where I learned it) but the top lip bite was totally new to me. I probably developed it intuitively to some extent and now it will add precision to my playing as I now appreciate the additional control.
