Any other harp players similar to Sonny Terry and Phil Wiggins? They are my favorite players and I hope to emulate the style (one day). Does anyone else play this way? Cheers in advance! Rusty

Madcat can do dat.
There are a couple of Sonny Terry's driver/protégés around, including Mark Lavoie
and Sonny Jr (of harp amp fame).
Ben Hewlett has entire books on how to play Sonny Terry-style harp
The amazing Tom Ball also wrote a book on Sonny Terry licks.
>Source Book for Sonny Terry Licks
I'm sure there are others but that ought to get you started.
