I've said it before here - Jean Sabot is just about the harmonica world's best-kept secret.   It was my unalloyed pleasure to play with him in a session in St Ives here in Cornwall a couple of years ago (and buy him fish and chips!).  His playing is tasteful, outstanding and altogether just out of this world, and he's a true gent to boot.

I don't know if I mentioned it before but there's an excellent Irish and Scottish harmonica discography here:  http://www.irishmusicreview.com
