To me, the word genius has to have some element of groundbreaking vision.
Yes, perhaps. But there's nobody in the field of the harmonica currently
whose breaking any new ground. And thus we return to the assertion that
sparked this discussion. I don't see much innovation in any musical genre
currently. (And of course innovation isn't necessary for enjoyment).
No doubt folks will throw up some usual suspect names, but I suspect that
says more about their narrow taste in music than supports the assertion the
players they "really, really like" are innovative or possessed of any
genius.
