Ian Collard plays some kind of great blues harp on JUKE JOINT BOOGIE and Collard Greens & Gravy has always been at the top of my list as great blues bands. I've got a bit of review over at www.bushdogblues.blogspot.com ---------- Ricky B www.bushdogblues.blogspot.com RIVER BOTTOM BLUES-A crime novel for blues fans due out late 2011
CG&G have made it to Canberra a couple of times and I've got Ian to run a harp workshop at my place. CG&G are playing at the Australian Blues Festival at Goulburn in mid Feb but I'm not sure if Ian's running a workshop there (he's done beginners worskshops a couple of times at Goulburn in the past).
Ian also does some great harp work with The Backsliders - he shares the harp gig with Brod Smith.
Got to know Ian Collard a bit when he came to Texas and agreed to put on a harp clinic for our HOOT (Harmonica Organization of Texas)chapter. He left most of us slack jawed with his proficiency on the ten holer. ---------- Ricky B www.bushdogblues.blogspot.com RIVER BOTTOM BLUES-A crime novel for blues fans due out late 2011
