It was, as usual with him, an amazing show - about three and a half hours of music, including lots from his upcoming album. I can't get enough of these guys, and can't wait to grab the album, which comes out April 21.

Jason's "taper friendly", with lots of shows at archive.org. These are on my server just because figuring out how to post to archive.org is still on my to-do list.
(Hope it's ok to have this post here - just trying to spread some harp love.)
You are right, Boolz...there are at least a few Jason FANatics here, me being one of them. I've seen him perhaps 15 times up and down the East coast and he and the band always put on a killer show.
I'm getting psyched as we're getting a double dose here in the next week. I've also had the honor of being asked up on stage to jam with him a couple of times....what a trip that is.
I'll definitely check our your posts and I'll be buying a few copies of the new CD when it drops....Buckweed his bass player called me a month or two ago raving about how great it was and he doesn't usually do that.
For you Joe fans who have never been exposed to a world-class harp player, imagine what it would sound like if someone as talented on his instrument as Joe played a harmonica. For some people it's almost too much but I love it. Check him out.
