We've discussed the merits of tongue blocking vs lip pursing in the blues to death. My question is: do harmonica players of other musical styles discuss it as well? Country, Bluegrass, Classical, Chromatic? Do they care what a player is using?

In certain genres, that is true as far as general consensus goes, and I know for a fact that in classical music, TB is often considered the only way to. Personally, I use both methods and often switch in mid phrase as both come in handy and are worth learning.
