Blues harmonica legend Paul Butterfield was born on this day in 1942. Paul
Butterfield revolutionized Chicago Blues by putting together the first
integrated Chicago Blues band and showing us that a white guy could play
with authority. Through the years his style expanded through his
explorations of different styles of music. He was an inspiration to many
of us.

Nine-string guitar player Big Joe Williams died on this day in 1982.
Williams could also play some harmonica.

Happy Birthdays are in order for Bobbie Giordano, David Fairweather and
Lenny Henderson, all members of various harmonica groups. I've had the
oppurtunity to get to know them through the years from their correspondence
and they are all nice folks.

That's all I have for today. Have fun and practice.
