Wow. I'm really shocked.
I met Chris at the World Harmonica Summit that he ran, which was really my introduction to the harmonica world . I was pleasantly surprised when he moved here to Phoenix. We had an informal lesson, and I later wound up sitting in with a couple of his bands, which was always fun (and a challenge for a blues guy like me). I would occasionally run into him at various functions (especially at one of the Denver SPAH events) although less often as the years went on. Last Thursday I played a show with one of his students, and Chris' influence was obvious. He was a real positive force. My condolences to his family.
