Subtitled “The greatest harmonica show ever”, Amanda’s Roller Coaster (named after the Little Walter instrumental) was a once in a lifetime occurance. Amanda Taylor dreamed of putting a show together of her favorite harmonica players and that dream became reality on Oct 1, 2, and 3, 2010. Only Amanda would have taken on the overwhelming task of a show of this magnitude, and she did so with flair! All 3 days were recorded by Clarke Rigsby of Tempest Recording and it was filmed also. Please enjoy this small sampling of the many photos taken freom this powerful weekend. More photos to be added later.
