Here are 10 harmonica clips from well known blues songs. How many can you name by artist and title ? Some are easy and some not so easy. Go ahead and give it a shot.

That leaves 1 & 2. #4 is actually Cotton-Help Me and #7 is Satan & Adam-Little Red Rooster. Ridge was right about #10. You guys are good. Thanks for humoring me.

Adam still alive? I saw Cotton once, he was wasted, might as well have been dead.

Not Little Walter, it's George Smith.
