A slow version of Ellington's "Mood Indigo" improvised over by a man who virtually re-invented his instrument is weird? With a nifty quote from "If I only Had a Brain?" It is beautiful to me. I guess that's what makes the world go 'round.
(Somebody has to have bought all those Montovani and 101 Strings records you find by the thousands in junk shops worldwide. )

great playing but that style off jazz is a little too weird for my liking

The "Thin Man" strikes again.

Howard, are you singing words into the harmonica? The only thing I think I can understand is "everybody's laughing" near the beginning.
Fantastic! My favorite harmonica piece on YouTube.

Howard thank you for inspiration and for showing people that the harmonica is a serious instrument for all kinds of music.

Honored to be the first to comment, except I'm speechless. Enough said.
