[Harp-L] Good Blues Harp

[Rick In Davis <rickindavis@xxxxxxxxx>]

A few day ago I download from iTunes both albums by The 
  Legendary Blues Band:  "Red, Hot, 'n' Blue" and "Life of Ease."  
  Great stuff!  The is Muddy's old band, with Pinetop Perkins, 
  Willie "Big Eyes" Smith, and Jerry Portnoy on harp.  Portnoy 
  is killin' and he busts out with some Sonny Terry-esque chops 
  that are amazing.  That is some good blues harp.
   
  I also bought the new CD from Watermelon Slim and the 
  Workers.  I looked though the archives at harp-l and saw that 
  Slim does not get much notice around here.  Too bad, because 
  he's good.  He has a pretty unique style, which is both 
  unconventional and traditional at the same time, with 
  extremely phat tone.  The guy is the real deal; an 
  Oklahoma working man who is starting to get 
  noticed in blues circles at 55 years old.  He is an 
  inspiration to all of us who started late or started over.
