Yeah. Tyler is pretty awful.
At least he doesn't use one of those neck-holder thingies.

5. Crap. I'll add Neil Young. He truly stinks on the harp.

4. You've obviously never heard me blow a mouth-harp.
I make Dylan sound like Sonny Boy Williamson.

8. Daltrey's pretty bad...
...but he confines it to one song.

9. Blues harp or harmonica?
If you mean blues harp, then my answer would be everyone who isn't black. Harmonica is for white folks.

15. Have you ever heard Wammo
from the Asylum Street Spankers? They're a band out of Austin, but play all over the place. Wammo's awesome. I never really enjoyed harmonica or blues harp till I saw him play it.

18. That's interesting...so do you believe that black people...
shouldn't play pop or European "classical" music?
Don't take it personally, I pose this same question to everyone who espouses that idea.

16. The Guys Who Come To Jam Night!
Really there are a couple of good ones, our friends Tony G. & Jim are pretty good.

There is one really good harp player who comes around from time to time. He played for 6 years with Travis Tritt and for a while with some of the outlaw country guys. He can play!

Most of them are hack wannabes!

20. Neil Innes - The Protest Song
brilliant parody of Dylan. One harmonica note lasting about 20 seconds followed by desperate gasping for breath, still through the harmonica. On a live Monty Python album, I think.

21. Whoever the hell is sucking on the Pretenders "Middle of the Road"
The song is pretty good, otherwise. I could look it up, but I'm not motivated to find out the name of the poor soul who is twisting the harp-reeds into pretzels on that song.
