The harmonica player on the the 1970 hit ‘Groovin with Mr Bloe’ was Harry Pitch. Otherwise known for playing the theme tune to the British sit-com ‘Last of the Summer Wine’.

Hi RR!
Thanks for your comments on Harp Surgery. I completely agree that even when life deals you the severest of blows, and we all get them, the harmonica never…that’s NEVER….let’s you down. It ain’t been sleeping around. It ain’t fleeced you for everything you have. It doesn’t kill. It won’t spit in your eye. It completely understands where you’re at. And it loves you no matter what. Ain’t that amazing? What’s more – it’ll give you a little oasis of peace and remind you of who you are and what’s important in life amidst the chaos. As for Bruce Channel – think we have some info on this one in the mix. Hope to hear more from you.

And of course, one of the best ever was a Belgian guy
It’s because of Toots Thielemans that i’ve started playing it today

This is to verify that Jr Wells was buried with Lee Oskar harmonicas. I know this to be a fact because I was there at the funeral. Mr Oskar also played the most beautiful song(solo). I have never heard a harp played that way before. I would like to thank him for being his friend and honoring us with his presence. The reason I know all of this is because Jr was my dad. I miss him everyday but his fans and friends help keep him alive for our family. May God bless and keep all of you. Thanks Jr’s Family
