  • You'd have us believe that innovation in blues harp playing halted shortly after WW2. All the old schoolers are geniuses who built their styles on players before them, and Sugar Blue is a modern master creating something original on the work of those who influenced him. He is the most important diatonic blues harpists since Butterfield.

  • No one touches Sugar Blue.

  • I love it when people think popper invented this shit. not to mention ricci or any of the other guys who think they are smooth and quick on the top end. Ha! this is the dude that basically invented having the nuts to play the high notes without being in first position.

  • @TheoBurke I cannot express how incredibly jealous I am. It's a disadvantage to living in Oregon. The East Coast and Southern players don't get up our way very often, so I have yet to meet most of my heroes and mentors. Do me a favor. Go to MySpace, and search for Michael Tracey & The Hi-Tones. Mike Tracey is a friend, and the man who inspired me to pick up the harp in the first place.

  • @OmniphonProductions I've met Jason Ricci, and the guy is a class act as well as being one of the finest diatonic players alive. He is unique, exciting, completely his own man.

  • @TheoBurke Speaking of modern masters, who are helping harp music to progress, if you haven't already, check out Jason Ricci. Sugar Blue and Jason Ricci are two distinctly different trees that obviously share the same roots. I've been studying the harp for just over a year now, and both artists inspire and impress.

  • seen him many times in Chicago. One of the greatest virtuosos.

  • simply the best!
