1. A Love Supreme by John Coltrane

Sorry Chris, but why???? its such boring shit, not even musical and even less interesting.

Ok, its been a long time since I heard it, but don't think my opinion would change if I listened to it again.

Dear List,

Writing about Kim Wilson just now, I thought of a new thread. I wrote about Jimmy Rogers' Chicago bound CD a minute ago, and thinking back, I should've had that disc LONG before I did. In the interest of being fun, and maybe saving newer players from missing out, I pose the following question.

In your opinion as a harmonica enthusiast, what 5 CD's/albums are must haves, or contributed the most to your own development? Call it "desert island discs", call it "requred reading" Call it what you want.

Please limit to 5 because it's harder that way, and challenges are fun.

Please state your genre/genres of focus for reference. Do not feel limited to harp-containing music, or any specific genre.

I'm a blues "nut" with a jam band history, so here's a list from my experience:

Genre/Philosophy: I love to play harmonica in the broad blues category. This includes many sub-genres. Here's 5 that made HUGE impacts on me.

1. Hoodoo Man Blues (Jr. Wells)
2. Chicago Bound (Jimmy Rogers with Little Walter on harp)
3.Muddy Mississippi Waters Live (James Cotton on harp)
4. Live at BB Kings (Rod Piazza)
5. Blues Traveler ((first disc self titled (John Popper))

There's so many more.....but that's my 5 and I'm sticking to it.
