A song I have always liked, and it’s kinda crazy, old and very primitive. I’m sorry but my computer skills are limited and don’t know how to do this but if ya go on youtube and type in “Boonville Stomp” and the album is “Harmonica Masters”. I like to listen to it.

This is something I heard and liked. I have no idea how to classify it but it is cool.

Thank you for this link, @toogdog !!!
I find it to be a really fun to listen recording that has truly captured the spirit of the late, great jazz musician Thelonius Monk. I am sure that he would have loved it too – and is probably dancing to it now in that “Heavenly Jazz Club” on the other side.

If your moustache won’t cooperate, then you might need to show it who’s the boss!

I’ve sculpted mine and cut it short, I was originally going for the Viking look to honour my ancestors but Vikings didn’t play harmonica

I love this album. When I was younger, I was very into George Winston’s solo piano albums, and sometimes still listen to them to sleep or chill out. I had no idea he played harmonica, but it turns out it was serious interest of his. Clips on youtube show him playing harp in between piano performances. Luckily someone collected some on this album.

I’m currently listening to the Live At The Troubadour version of “Driftin’ and Driftin’” by Paul Butterfield. In my eyes, he had the best acoustic and amplified tone on a classic Marine Band. I swear Butterfield would’ve played a tin can and make it sound good. I’m a huge fan of his playing and he was the third harmonica player who influenced my style the most, other than Todd Parrott and Terry McMillan. Even though he wasn’t as well known as his black peers like Little Walter or Sonny Boy Williamson II, he had a really unique sound at the time which made him stand out to me as a harmonica player.

I so agree Butterfield was amazing and a purser too!!! His band were totally one of the first bands in the US to have an influence on the early psychedelic scene. I am always aghast at the fact Americans will always put the British Blues bands over bands Like Paul Butterfield and
indeed Canned Heat with Alan Blind Owl Wilson who was also an innovator on the Harmonica. I’m from the UK and I like those two bands better than anything Clapton did with any of the bands he was with, or even early Fleetwood Mac, in fact if I had to pick two UK Blues bands that I like better than the usual suspects it would be the Stones, Savoy brown (vastly underrated) and the Animals. I don’t include Rory Gallagher in that List because he was Irish and he was probably the best and most underrated guitarist of all time
