Title explains it, ISO blues harp songs with a funky twist like Leavin' Trunk by Taj Mahal :)

"Truck Driving Man" by Terry Fell with great harmonica accompaniment.

Theres no harmonica player credited. Any guesses on who's playing harp on the song? 

I would like to research more recordings by the harp player.

Saw this after Annie Raines asked on Facebook (and gave great praise to the performance) if anyone knew who was playing harp on this number. Then people answered it was Ross Garren, and I thought "wait a minute, I think I've seen this guy before...". Ross is the instructor who gives the overbends lessons here.

Great performance indeed!

This is a great example of the "Harp Growl" being used extensively in a song.

BTW

If you're interested in learning the Harp Growl see Tom Ball's interview on this site.

Dave asks Tom to explain the technique in the "Hand Useage and Growl" portion.

Lonnie Glosson playing "Poppin' The Blues" in 64.

If you haven't heard Lonnie you need to.
