Favorite Rock Players
What are some of your favorite Rock harmonica players?
-Taylor
Although he may have never done anything high on technique, Neil Young always got a good feel from his playing. The same could be said for Bob Dylan, but I never really liked him as much.
Stephen Tyler, Bruce Springsteen, and Billy Joel are some good players using more technique but definitely more on the feeling side.
Great players in rock I think are Stevie Wonder (if you want to call it rock), Huey Lewis, John Popper, "Southside" Johnny Lyon, and (of course) Magic Dick. I also really liked the sound of the harp player in this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kx6FV2qR2TY The harp player is the lead man in a band called "Five Horse Johnson" Who have been around since 1995.
The Steve Miller Band's latest album "Let Your Hair Down" has a lot of harp on it. I don't know who is playing, though.

Gary Primich & maantiekiitäjät "The Girl That Radiates that sharm " What a great harp solo.
The band is actually Honey B and T Bones and CD MAANTIEKIITÄJÄT `91.
Also found in Hot Dog Pop Hit Singles CD.
If anyone knows what harp and how he is playing. it sounds like chromatic and sometimes not.
"Kim Wilson" Black Cat Bone. Kim Wilson'sBlues Express.
Along with Solo Harmonica Studies. Great D harmonica playing.
