This is a convenient time to note that I'm listening to Scott Albert Johnsons's new CD "Going Somewhere," and it's amazing. Great tunes, and some of the most original harmonica work I've heard in years. The harp tone is blues, but the lines are completely fresh and absent of cliche. Well worth the listen. Stay tuned for a full review of this record at hunterharp.com.
