"JUICY HARMONICA" Vol. 1

...It includes some familiar titles like Tough Times by John Brim (with some of Jimmy Reed's best harmonica work), Goin' Back To Orleans by Jesse & Buzzy and Chicago bluesman Dusty Brown's great Well You Know but there are lots of great obscurities...
...some making their first CD appearance including the wonderful two sided Working Man/ All Because Of You by Long Tall Lester with fine harp from Raful Neal, three sides from underrated West Coast bluesman Model "T" Slim (Elmon Mickle) who learned to play harmonica from John Lee "Sonny Boy" Williamson whose influence is strongly evident on his tracks and more from Levi Seabury, Little Shy Guy & The Hot Rods (one of the best sides by Shy Guy Douglas), Mo-Jo Buford, Little Daddy Walton and Sons and others. Sound is excellent and booklet has label shots of some of the discs featured here. (FS) (Roots & Rhythm)
