Thank you for posting such an interesting piece of music! I now see how delta blues inspired the roots of bluegrass music.

Noah Lewis was one of the first great harmonica accompanists - he manages to weave his instrument in and out of the vocal line without ever eclipsing it.
There are many technically superior harp players who never reached his level of skill.

@thallassocracy These days there are players around with phenominal technique, but over 80 years ago when this was recorded there was no one who could touch him in terms of speed, tone and control, let alone linear development of melodic ideas..try playing his stuff and you'll find it's not as easy as he makes it sound

wonderful harmonica, who is it?

The fabulous harmonica player is Noah Lewis who played a sad and melancholy harmonica. Very distinctive in style. Not as well known as Sonny Boy Williamson (both), or Sonny Terry, but definately one of the greats in my opinion. Paul Jones, ex Manfred Mann and The Blues Band and the BBC cites him as a great influence.
Best wishes
