Monday Blues Podcast Series 3 Episode 2 - Harmonica Blues
This week, Imran & Dan look at the instrument most associated with the blues - the harmonica. Also known as the mouth organ or the blues harp, this cheap little reed instrument can, in the right hands, be as expressive as the human voice.
Here, we showcase four of the greatest blues harp players.
