There are a couple of MP3 clips of Overton Low-D’s on Clips and Snips.

My rendition of The](http://nwparalegal.com/clipssnip/Audio/slow/SouthWind-GaryHumphrey.mp3%22%3EThe) South Wind is also played on a big hole model Overton low D, but I’d be reluctant to call those recordings good examples of the true sound of the whistle because of my heavy use of echo… but thanks for thinking of me Lee. :wink:

I stand corrected. Maybe it was your predominant use of the term when you were deep into your Overton … ahh … habit?.. addiction…? ahhh… oh well I think at times you had more Overtons than any retailer in america. (And my shading is irish green not envy).

You’re right Honorable Loren San.
I forgot that Mick recently disabled file linking.
Right click, copy shortcut, then paste the links into the address window.
That will solve the problem… I think! :laughing:
