    Nice licks Lee. I'm on the west coast of Canada...a little rock called Salt spring island. I also use an Astatic JT 30 from about 1965. As well as a Strnad mic that is very cool for the way the harp slips inside the main body, which is almost like playing acoustically. Love your style dude.

    @leesankeygroup Lee, your performance is no less than brilliant. Ian set's you up for a fantastic solo... you deliver and how. I came to check out some harp on this video (glad that I did) and was rewarded with some of the most entertaining lines and delivery by Ian Siegal that I have ever heard (personal opinion noted) this dude put me in "That Place". Again, the harp solo was epic, all too often I feel like a hostage during some harp runs. Thanks.
