Blues singer, guitar and harmonica player Jimmy Reed died on this day in
1976.  Jimmy came to the harmonica later in his musical career and developed
one of the more distinctive styles of Blues playing, concentrating on the
upper blow notes of the harmonica.

That's all I have for today.  Have fun and practice.
