Good discussion here.
I'm of the school that blues harmonica players should listen to a lot of harp players, not to ape them or learn their songs note for note, but rather the the purpose of learning how to speak the "language of the blues." Once you have a good blues vocabulary then you can communicate more eloquently in your own voice.
