    Default Harry Manx acoustic blues

    Have a listen to British Columbia resident Harry Manx. Great blues man. He often plays a cigar box guitar.

    I enjoy some of Harry's music. He also plays a mohan veena (see pic below), the instrument created by Vishwa Mohan Bhatt.

    It's my understanding that Manx learned the instrument under the tutelage of Bhatt and his son.

    Harry is very good. I've been listening to him playing on the Raven 'n' Blues podcast - he's played on Dave's House Boat - see and hear his session from November - just scroll to his name/picture.

    Yeah, I like his sound. He sounds very black for being so white, so to speak. (hope it's ok to say it like that)
