Title: Heavy Hittin' West Coast Harp
Artist: William Clarke
Label: Bear Family
Product Type: VINYL LP

Studio recordings, most of which had been posthumously released on now long deleted CDs on the small Watch Dog label. Including a previously unreleased recording with Luke 'Long Gone' Miles. Compiled by producer and harmonica player Bob Corritore, who also wrote the liner notes. Carefully remastered by Tom Meyer and pressed by Optimal media, 180-gram edition in a gatefold sleeve, limited to 1.000 copies After some tough early years in which he managed to stay afloat with mostly poorly paid gigs in small clubs and only occasionally came out of Los Angeles or Southern California, William Clarke (March 21, 1951 - November 2, 1996) signed with the famous Alligator Records label. With his debut album 'Blowin' Like Hell' for the Chicago blues factory, the West Coast's blues secret became an endlessly touring international star of the scene! With 'Heavy Hittin' West Coast Harp' we pay tribute and respect to one of the greatest harmonica stylists. As an instrumentalist William Clarke was strongly influenced by George 'Harmonica' Smith, a Chicago contemporary of Little Walter and Walter Horton. Smith came to Los Angeles for a recording session in 1956 and settled on the West Coast. Similar to his iconic idol Smith, from whom he learned a lot of tricks in countless joint appearances, Clarke was equally at home on the cross harmonica as on the chromatic. The combination of Chicago-style harmonica and the cool groove and swing of West Coast blues and jazz met the open ears of blues fans all over the world. On his first album 'Hittin' Heavy' he is accompanied by Hollywood Fats on guitar, later recording sessions include Ronnie Earl, Junior Watson, Rick Holmstrom and Alex Schultz a.m.o. Bob Corritore, for many years a prolific blues musician and first-class harp player, producer and influencer, has compiled this album and written the liner notes for Bear Family.

Interactive dog toy
Perfect dog toy. My dog loves all the different ropes. The combination ropes and the plush toy keep my dog entertained for long periods of time. This makes it perfect for interactive, play alone and play together. There are various surfaces for a dog to chew on this toy with different textures. My dog is more of a power chewer and can easily destroy this toy. Therefore, the chewability is fairly easy. This makes it great for more supervised to play, not the way I can leave out. The toy makes different sounds which my dog loves. The size is perfect for my 65 lb dog. She can easily wrap house with it and carry it around the house. Overall functional, fun, interactive dog toy.

A "Pouch" of Perfection for my Zen Bestie
Color: Drool Mint
My husband is always reaching for his Zyn, so I figured, why can’t my dog... be Zen too?! It was time he had his own "nic-o-treat" to enjoy. This parody toy is a total sensation. My pup is obsessed with the texture; it’s perfectly crunchy and noisy when he plays or chews on it, which keeps him entertained for hours. It’s definitely not your "ruff" average chew toy—it’s built to last and provides the ultimate paws-itive reinforcement. If you want your dog to stay chill-ing like a pro while you enjoy your own downtime, this is the "upper" your toy box needs. It’s un-fur-gettable!
