Subject: A couple of questions

I have searched the archives to no avail. I've searched the Web to no
avail. Alas, I turn to my brethren. Some months backs there was
occassional discussion of Honeyboy Edwards' book 'The World Don't Owe Me
Nothin'. I can't find it anywhere. Can anyone tell me the publisher?
Anyone know of its availability?

Next Topic: I recently got Steve Baker's Harp handbook from Kevin's. I
went immediately to the overblow section, read it, tried it, did it. Well
it wasn't exactly that easy. But I did overblow a Bb in hole 6. The fact
that it had a certain quality of a goose honking is not important to me :-)
I can only imagine the amount of practice it would take to be able to hit
that note at will.

Next Question: If the band is playing 'Help Me' in F minor, do I still use
a Bb harp? Is there a Bb minor? Do I need a special tuning?
