Yes, it was Bob Herndon.  He is an amazing harmonetta player, and always
impressed the heck out of us with his playing at the Buckeye.

I saw somebody play one Buckeye 2008. Looked like he was playing a
portable Underwood typewriter and he did a  fine job of it. I do
remember he was playing in a trio with Jim Lohman. I can't remember who
was playing chord in the trio. 
Somebody will know exactly who this was. In fact, for some reason, I
think it actually was Bob.
