CHRISSIE HYNDE, RECKLESS — My dad played... chromatic harmonica and had an ocarina... which I would sneak down from the shelf and have a go on myself. ... I copied Bob Dylan's harmonica holder out of a coat hanger so I could play my uke at the same time.
My dad played his chromatic harmonica and had an ocarina, aka a "sweet potato," which I would sneak down from the shelf and have a go on myself. (When "Wild Thing" stormed the charts years later, I could knock out that closing solo, no problem, me and a couple-of-dozen freckled West Virginians.) I copied Bob Dylan's harmonica holder out of a coat hanger so I could play my uke at the same time.
