Any examples of harp playing on reggae-style blues?
I dunno. I've never heard reggae-style blues, didn't even know it was a
thing. For that matter, never heard of blues-styled Reggae, either.
Harmonica in general is pretty rarely used in Reggae. Another fixed-reed
instrument, the Melodica, is much more widely used, generally without a lot
of tone modification. In other words, the big blues tones are absent.
Thanks, RH
