[Harp-L] Howard Levy Plays Bluegrass

[David Naiditch <davidnaiditch@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The harmonica player that bluegrass musicians most often mention to me is Howard Levy.  Howard was introduced to most of them through banjoist Bela Fleck and the Flecktones.  Haven’t heard Howard play much straight-ahead bluegrass or old-timey, but here he is playing along with a bluegrass banjo player who looks like he has seen better days.

You can hear Howard play Mark O’Connor’s arrangement of Cottonpatch Rag on his Cappuccino CD.  A short sample of this tune is provided at the iTunes store.
