Blonde&#8221; Album. One song called for a trumpet part which should have been an easy overdub, except that Dylan didn&#8217;t care for overdubs. So McCoy, while playing bass with his left hand, played trumpet with his right hand, without missing a beat. Kooper points out that Dylan stopped in the middle of the song, amazed.&#8221; (The song was <del datetime=\"2022-05-05T19:35:46+00:00\">probably<\/del> not &#8220;Rainy Day Women #12 &amp; 35&#8221;, based on the sound and reports such as <a href=\"http:\/\/plotino.blogia.com\/2007\/092701-mystic-nights-the-making-of-blonde-on-blonde-in-nashville..php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MYSTIC NIGHTS: <em>The Making of Blonde on Blonde in Nashville<\/em><\/a>.

When I first became conscious of Charlie McCoy, when I bought Highway 61 Revisited and heard his guitar part on on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bobdylan.com\/us\/songs\/desolation-row\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Desolation Row<\/a>, I probably still didn&#8217;t know of his harmonica prowess. And I probably didn&#8217;t know it was him playing the harmonica riff on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bobdylan.com\/us\/songs\/obviously-five-believers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Obviously Five Believers<\/a> in 1966, though I played that album over and over that summer. I missed out on McCoy&#8217;s Nashville break on Orbison&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HE2aDDSV4rg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Candy Man<\/a> in 1961. But when Dylan recovered from his motorcycle accident and released <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bobdylan.com\/us\/music\/john-wesley-harding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">John Wesley Harding<\/a>, I noticed the bass playing, all by Charlie McCoy. And the next year (1968) it was hard not to notice McCoy&#8217;s\u00a0harp on Jerry Lee Lewis&#8217; <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/What's_Made_Milwaukee_Famous_(Has_Made_a_Loser_Out_of_Me)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">What&#8217;s Made Milwaukee Famous (Has Made a Loser Out of Me)<\/a>. But I <em>didn&#8217;t<\/em> notice it was\u00a0McCoy playing. The list of credits at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.charliemccoy.com\/album.php\">http:\/\/www.charliemccoy.com\/album.php<\/a>\u00a0doesn&#8217;t seem complete, but it is voluminous.<\/p>\n<p>The other day I was trying to remember where (which recording) Johnny Cash chanted &#8220;I don&#8217;t care if I do die do die do die&#8230;&#8221;. With help from Google, my mistaken memories were corrected to the right answer, Cash&#8217;s recording of <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Orange_Blossom_Special_%28song%29\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Orange Blossom Special<\/a>, with, who else, Charlie McCoy playing more notes than seems possible on a diatonic harp. There&#8217;s are YouTube <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=IIDG66DG9rc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">versions<\/a>\u00a0of McCoy showing even more tricks, one with maybe Johnny Gimble on fiddle, but I prefer the McCoy (Cash) studio version of the song.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, today I&#8217;ve listened to all of the above, plus more than a few other McCoy tracks, notably Dolly Parton&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VG2kL4ojylk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">My Tennessee Mountain Home<\/a>, which seems like time well spent.<\/p>\n<p>P.S. Of course, the title of this post refers to the song by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Keep-Ourselves-Sonny-Boy-Williamson\/dp\/B000001PG3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sonny Boy Williamson II<\/a> and another harp influence, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Return-Koerner-Ray-Glover\/dp\/B00000IIQV\/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;s=music&amp;qid=1202588582&amp;sr=1-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tony Glover<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>P.P.S. Imagine the Desolation Row session. Or all of the John Wesley Harding sessions. There&#8217;s Dylan playing harp with hardly anyone else there but McCoy. There are those (not me!) that dis Dylan&#8217;s harmonica playing. Images of those sessions suggest Dylan must not\u00a0lack for confidence in\u00a0his own playing.<\/p>\n<p>P.P.P.S. I think I understand what McCoy is doing on Orange Blossom Special, mostly playing an F harp, switching to B<span class=\"music-symbol\" style=\"font-family: Arial Unicode MS, Lucida Sans Unicode;\">\u266d<\/span> to get an octave lower F chord and the\u00a0B<span class=\"music-symbol\" style=\"font-family: Arial Unicode MS, Lucida Sans Unicode;\">\u266d<\/span> chord. Understanding what he&#8217;s\u00a0doing and playing like that\u00a0are a little different though&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>1.
