The connectedness of all things physical and spiritual is astounding.Hello again Marc. I'm grateful for a never-ending attraction to these matters. Do you keep up with what's happening in the field?ĭS: My interest in physics is cosmology and quantum mechanics. One of the hallmarks of a great player is to be able to continually invent without relying on chord changes to carry interest. This made accompanying him more difficult. John Lee played mostly on one chord and, when he did change, it was not according to a standard formula like a lot of blues. This was around 1970 in Boston at a club called the Jazz Workshop.

JC: Your best experience playing with an old-time blues musician?ĭS: Jamming with John Lee Hooker was especially thrilling. I still love it, and I'm working on improving it! My guess would be thousands of times not counting my own practicing. I've performed it at every show I've played. JC: Do you ever get tired of playing Whammer Jammer? How many times do you think you've played it?ĭS: It's a constant source of stress, but it helps to keep my playing honed. Use your imagination to advance your technique and improve your sound. Do whatever it takes to stay strongly attracted to playing the harp. JC: Your advice to young aspiring musicians?ĭS: Listen, and practice all the time.

As a harp player, I don't have time to spend this way.

JC: Do you watch America's Got Talent and such shows, and what do you think of them?ĭS: Talent is everywhere. Geils Band, my musical role is more narrowly defined. Each day we get together brings so much spontaneous playing and new ideas. Geils Band.ĭS: The musical experience with Shun Ng is very fresh, exciting and challenging. JC: Contrast an acoustic performance with Shun Ng to one of The J. Our drummer, Stephen Jo Bladd, had a gorilla mask on and the rest of us had on old-man masks. Geils touring days?ĭS: One Halloween in the early '70's somewhere in Canada, we thought we'd have some fun when we came out on stage to start our show.

JC: How about a crazy story from the old J.
