But all my years of playing guitar has also taught me the musicality 
of providing the right chord, inversion, leading or passing tone to not only 
help support what the soloist or vocalist is doing, but also what they're trying 
to get across musically. So can't we do that as harmonica players, even if it's 
just a note fading in here or there? Like when Victor Wooten will play 3rd, 5th, 
or whatever on his instrument to " move " the music along?






Yes, we can do that as harmonica players. However, it means a bit less "dig me",
 a bit more restraint, and a bit more musical knowledge.
