Yes, Jason does punctuate (hard attack with "T") most of his notes. This gives more punch to his lines and is actually hard to do at the velocity that he plays.

Power playing,

What seperates Jason Ricci and other great Pros Like William Clarke, Rick 
Estrin, Rod Piazza, etc. etc. etc.  from most other players, especially those 
harmonica hackers who sound like them annoying pipe flute players, is that Ricci 
and the others are not afraid to seriously attack the notes that they are 
playing...When they begin a phrase, there is no pussyfootin around!  I could go 
on and on - Nuff said for the moment?  Please, CHIME IN...
