A Pinetop Perkins CD was recently praised as a great "Harp CD".
I have to add Jimmy Roger's name to this short list of non-harpers who feature harp so well. Two of my favorite "harp discs" are Jimmy Rogers releases. "Feelin' Good" is a fun rockin' CD featuring Rod Piazza and the Flyers. "Ludella" is an awesome live release featuring Kim Wilson. Together they have one hot hot night.
After I've been practicing specific songs and licks for a while, when I just want to cut loose and improvise, these two discs are the first ones I reach for. They are great examples of very tasty back-up playing. Always interesting, never distracting. Check 'im out!
