Topic: Landfill Harmonics!

...thought at first to put this in 'Other Artist'...they deserve to be considered as such but hopefully some time in the future one or two will 'make it'!?

...makes you wanna cry and it lifts your heart,and it makes you wish you were rich enough to send over a boat load of gear!

Passion!  Drive!  Desire...

A poser waits for mommy to buy him/her a pair of million dollar shoes and a sporty hoop and an autographed ball before he practices.  A champ sweats barefoot on asphault & broken glass with a skinned up ball and a nailed up backboard with a rusty rim.

Good call, Cabby

Re: Landfill Harmonics!

Amazing that these instruments sound so good.  Thanks for sharing this Pete - a lot of people could learn a lot from this - nice feel good story for the season.

Where there's a will...there's a way. Like Pete said, beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time.

This is very moving .... and isn't this exactly how many of the delta blues artists started, with a wire stretched on a board.
