Free Music Notes for Wise and Otherwise
Free Music Review: Tremendously talented.
Hit: 5 Stars
I just saw an interview with Harry Manx on a Canadian Blues programme called "Talkin' Blues". I have to say i was totally knocked out by his very sincere approach, his gentle manner and calm and happy countenance.
He's got to be one of the nicest musicians on the planet. He's also tremendously talented having studied the Mohan Vina under the guidance of V.M. Bhatt for 5 years in India. This is NO easy task.
His sound reminds me of Kelly Joe Phelps but perhaps his style is a tad more varied.
If you buy any CD of Harrys i don't think you'll be disappointed at all.
Wise and Otherwise Poster
Canadian bluesman Harry Manx makes what sounds like a recipe for disaster--acoustic covers of "The Thrill Is Gone" and "Foxy Lady" featuring the veena, a South Indian stringed instrument somewhat similar to the banjo--work surprisingly well. Manx comes by the Indian influences in his music honestly. He spent 25 years in India before relocating to Canada, where NorthernBlues (home of the equally accomplished Otis Taylor) has presented his second album, a follow-up to 2001's Dog My Cat. Wise and Otherwise continues the unusual but highly successful mix of traditional acoustic blues and Indian music pioneered on Manx's first album, though the inevitable comparisons to Kelly Joe Phelps are still apt. It's a little different from what you'd normally expect out of an acoustic bluesman, perhaps, but certainly none the worse for that. --Genevieve WilliamsBlues Music CDs
