Hi,

Just got Kim Wilsons he complete my blues session 3 CDs! The set features several takes of each song/instrumental so gives a great feel for the improvisational skill of Kim.

It may seem pricey at $50 but its not really when you consider how much material you get, well worth it!

Enjoy,

Buyer beware if you’re thinking of buying Harmonica Rarities.  There are no recording dates or any information about the players, just song names (no version number) and artist.  For me, and other collectors, omission of such information significantly reduces its value.  Most of the fifty-nine songs on Harmonica Rarities can be found on Document Records and for continue reading...

I love Jimmy Reed but lets face it. His music is really sloppy. 

Now get Jimmy Vaughn on the guitar, Omar Kent Dykes on the vocals and Kim Wilson and James Cotton on harp you get one on the best blues CD in my opinion.

Everybody should know this guitar player.

He just received the Orange County Music Awards Lifetime Achievement Award. Hes supose to be getting better.

His music is great to practice accompaniment.

Does any one know who plays the harp on BB Blues by Nellie McKay from the Rumor Has It movie soundtrack? so good. 

If you don't know who Paul Delay is you're missing out on some of the most innovative harp ever!

Here's some very cool early stuff, check out the samples & tell me what you think.

UPDATE: I think this is the album Joe suggested in class. Sonny Terry is not mentioned in the discription but it sounds like him to me. What do you think?

Brother John Sellers "Jack of Diamonds" Album. It doesn't get any more real than this!

Stumbled across George Winston by accident, I love his toungue blocking technique, absolutely amazing use of low tonic drone over folk songs. Sorry its not blues but it stil has that big chordal sound that catches me everytime. check out his album on itunes called "Harmonica Solos". He was taught by Sam Hinton and Rick Epping so great foundations.

Heres some youtube links for those interested:
