Kurt McMahan of King Corduroy

"People often ask me how long I've been playing blues harp. The truth is I first picked one up when I was 12. It was a hand-me-down from my Grandfather. However, my playing was only remedial until I met Rubin. If you're looking for licks; don't go to Rubin. You can steal licks from a record. Rubin will teach fundamentals that will give you adequate knowledge of your instrument. When you you finish your apprenticeship you will be not only a better harmonica player, but a better musician."
