That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for December 28, 2018

Arthur Marx, the early years.

His parents didn’t want to pay for more than one harp so they just bought the one and hoped he would grow into it.

Despite hanging by his arms for hours on end Hubert still couldn’t play any movements with notes in the bass clef.

I guess it was that or the tuba, and you don’t have to march with this.

As if I wasn’t getting beaten up enough at school, …

Got to be an easier way to slice eggs.

Grandma was right when she said, “Harry if you don’t stop harping on things you’re gonna turn into one!”

They were just stringing him along, getting him ready for a pro career as an early telephone switchboard operator!

I’ll remember this when its time to put you in a home, Ma!!!

That’s one way to keep him pinned to the chair.

You said, " If AC-DC can rock bag pipes, I can play rock n’ roll on the harp"…..You’re so full of it mother!

“Little help!”

In a gadda da vida, baby, In a gadda da vida, honey, Don’t you know that I’m lovin’ you…. ad infinitum nonsense… oh yeah….

I Took my harp to the party but nobody asked me to play

Reggae just didn’t sound the same on a harp.

He’s got blisters on his finger.

I thought they called it ‘middle C’ because of the finger you play it with.

“Ma, I meant I wanted to play a blues harp.” “I’ve been so broken hearted……”

Took me a bit. snerks

“I’m just gonna take a second to tune up. Well, maybe a few seconds.”

Wee Jimmy Malone had always been highly strung.

He looks kinda strung out, doncha think?

both have sparse info about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. This is the first work by him used here (2 times, with this repeat as a Classic).

Somebody is overcompensating for a … shortcoming.

“Dammit – I hate this plucking thing !”

pacenini , shows hot to hold the harp, although he as of now can’t play it.

In his “Young Lutheran’s Guide to the Orchestra,” Garrison Keillor identified the harp as the most Lutheran instrument both for its association with angels and the difficulty to play and move around.

He always wanted to play jazz harp but, alas, you can’t always get what you want.

Yeah, My feet are on your new hat box! What of it?? :>)

“When Paddy McGinty plays the harp

you’ve got to get up and dance …

I hate to harp on this, but …

If only there was some outlet where I could express my outrage to my like-minded peers. Excuse me. I wanna try something.
