Post-Butterfield harmonica style, influenced as well by Coltrane, John McLaughlin, Johnny Winter and Charlie Musselwhite (not that I sound anything remotely like these geniuses). Call it a shred style, but I'm learning slower modes, more melodic. It helps to have big ears, taking in all styles and sounds.
