Harp Performers on Video?



I recorded from TV - I think it was from the old late night music show hosted
by sax player David Sanborne a B&W clip of Sonny Boy II doing "You got to keep
it to Yourself" and of Muddy Waters doing "Got my Mojo Working" and some old
Louis Jordan and Mile Davis. I use to tape that show just for the old footage
and also some good live performances like Clapton with Robert Clay and John
Sebastian Jr. with Willie Dixon. The show has been off the air I believe for
several years. Other than those types of snippets I have not seen but would
love to see footage of Little Walter etc. Also in the Blues Brothers movie
there is about a 10 second Maxwell Street scene with Big Walter in it.

It would be great if somehow the Harp list could come up with a video/film
library or listing from those old TV shows and/or movies.  Does Hohner have
any video/film archives. I mean why stop at just blues harp players. Old
footage of people like Larry Adler and Toots Thielman would be great too. Kim
Field (if you read this) may know what is out there.

  Does anyone know of any videos of some of the '50s harp players on video.
Perhaps some of Little Walter (with or without Muddy Waters), or even Sonny
Terry?  I'd like to see anyone though.
