    Hi all,
    Some of you may already know I was a professional harmonica player way back in the 1950-75. I have just uploaded an mp3 file (1.8meg) it is one of my Radio Broadcasts from the 1960’s with the BBC Symphony Orchestra. The tune is called “No Limit” and is quite a fast and intriguing piece to play.
    Just click the photo.
    May take a while to upload unless you are using broadband like I am.
    Let me know what you think.

    LOL!
    I listened to it twice Paul and enjoyed, it reminded me of the old Ed Sulivan show.

    Now, do you do Chicago Blues Harp?

    Hi all and thanks, brings back memories.
    Paul, that was a sort of a train sound, it was composed by that other well known Harmonica player Tommy Reilly who sadly died last year. I went to his funeral as I known Tommy for many years (also Larry Adler, now deceased.) It was quite some wake in the fact that I met up with many old show business friends, along with Max Bygraves.

    Paul, you never cease to amaze me [​IMG] I just got around to playing your music. It appears that you can do almost anything artistic - and very well indeed!

    It was good to hear the announcer - they all sounded just like that in those days :D

    Paul,
    The world is going to miss you in time! You've got a gift with Artistry! And not to mention known for it! Its not that your good or great at it its something that you were born with as a "Gift" and let me tell ya.. Who ever knows about it and heard it "with the music" and seen it "with your modeling skills" will make you one missed fellow and probably a lengend . I can see it already. A legend to our hobby and to the older world of music with a hamonica! I think thats how its spelled! Anyway. I listened to Nolimit and saved it in my WMP7......

    Excellent Paul! You should put a harmonica player sitting by the tracks somewhere on the layout to go with those other great scenes!
