RE: [Harp-L] video, john popper "how to play the harmonica"

Interesting vid.
I was surprised by this sentence : "that's what Little Walter would do in the 1940's and I was in the 1980's".
There is approx. the same era between the 40's and the 80's than between the 80's and today.
I really like John Popper style, and I respect the fact that he has invented a way of playing.
But I still wonder : what is the next level ? :-)

My favorite of the series:

This directly mirrors my experiences and attitudes towards harmonica.
