    Jimmy Hall is the first guy to come to my mind. Wet  Willie Drippin' Wet 
is one of the best live albums I've ever heard. For a  vocalist/harmonica/sax 
player he could down right get it done. He isn't  great at the sax but he 
could play. That version of It's All Right taught me how  to play harp and sing a 
song at the same time. Jeff Beck liked him enough to  have him do some vocals, 
that's good enough for me.

Just had  a quasi-epiphany of sorts. What  really gets my attention?? Yes,  
superb harp  playing...of course. But it just hit me that what really  gets 
me 
amped up is a  harp player that can really use his/her own  "first" 
instrument"....vocal chords. This leads me to a couple of guys  that may be 
old news for  
some, so please bare with me, John Nemeth  and Sugar Ray  Norcia come to mind 
and 
really do knock  me out.  I think it's the "croonerizm" factor that gets me. 
Estrin and Wilson   have that same effect. Just one player's thoughts.
