The rustic, laconic way that these recordings unfolded, aided and abetted by Miller's trademark, echo-laden production, makes them singular even inside the Excello stable. This succinct set has the best known tracks that Harpo released, including the songs "I'm a King Bee" (and its many variations like "Buzzin'"), the gorgeous "Rainin' in My Heart" (and its maybe even more impressive sequel "Still Rainin' in My Heart"), "Baby Scratch My Back," and "Te-Ni-Nee-Ni-Nu," Truthfully, Harpo was a bit of a one trick pony, but that trick was so absolutely wonderful that one can never get enough of it. ~ Steve Leggett Producer: Jay Miller Format: CD (1 Disc); Mono Country: USA Studio/Live: Studio Release Date: 1 September, 2002 Label: Dark Peak Productions Dimensions: 12.5 x 14.2 x 1 centimeters (0.08 kg)
