Very interesting. Writing this from a train with no Youtube access; is that the same Greg Miller who won the NHL's Harmonica Player of the Year award in 2010? I met him at a jam session at Ain't Nothin' But the Blues in London a few months ago (as described at http://www.hunterharp.com/two-days-three-jams-in-london/#more-1297). He was playing straight-up Chicago blues at the time; not a hint of jazz in his tone or his lines. Don't that beat all. Some guys just don't show you everything they've got on one tune...
