[Harp-L] Wrecking Crew



A great group of musicians, no doubt, but Carol Kay's attempts to take credit for James Jamerson's work with Motown's house band, the Funk Brothers, hasn't reflected well upon her. It's nice to see Jamerson's fans in the bass playing community defending his memory and body of work.

Speaking of Motown, did any other harmonica player besides Stevie Wonder ever appear on any of their recordings? It seems to me that anything approaching blues harp would have sounded too down-home to Barry Gordy, who was looking to sell modern urban R&B to white teenagers.
