Frank Frost is the one playing Joe Seneca's harmonica parts in this movie, not Mr. Seneca himself. However, Joe Seneca was a songwriter in his earlier days.
Ry Cooder is great on guitar & I love his playing. But I had the pleasure of meeting Joe Seneca one time. He was as nice of a guy as you'll ever find. And an awesome harmonica player.
This Harmonica work is Joe Seneca himself (the man who plays Willie Brown in this film) . . . though he was never a front man, he was instrumental as a jazz/blues harmonica presence and many owe their sound to him.
But in the movie, a guitar playing WIllie Brown would have fought the "cutting heads" duel by himself..the story is imhO much better with Lightning coming to his aid:)
This movie is one of the reasons I fell in live with blues and picked up harp as my instrument of choice. The harp player in the film on "Willie Brown Blues" was John "Juke" Logan who was also known for his harp playing on the TV show, "Rosanne". He is most under-rated in my opinion. Google him for more info.
MUITO BOM! AMEI!! MÚSICA MUITO ANIMADA.

I think some of the acoustic harmonica work was done by the great Sonny Terry, but I know the amped harp work was Juke Logan.
