Re: [Harp-L] VIDEO- multiple harmonicas of Big Mama Thornton, John Lee Hooker, Big Walter Horton & Dr Ross - YouTube



I saw Wilhelmina Mae back in 61. I think Baton Rouge. Maybe Biloxi? never saw Lenoir, Horton, Hooker, but that Dr. Ross guy looks familiar. I think I saw him but he was mainly a guitar player ( a very soulful one) and sometimes played harp in a rack. I think I remember him wearing a suit that was several sizes too big? I think he has a nice syrupy tone. 

Wilhelmina btw does a version o Hound Dog that absolutely crushes Elvis' box of cookies. lol

And Buddy? Pure genius..but I preferred Stevie Rae.
