The Fabulous Thunderbirds
Uploaded by: rudseng
Video Description:
Thunderbirds at their best. Kim Wilson playing 1`st position like no one else. This is the best harmonica playing in the entire world.
Why Charlie Musselwhite gets all the Handy awards for best harmonica playing, is a mystery to me

what the hell is this?
Harman is a great harp player, with excellent, distinctive tone. But technically he's not up there with cats like Wilson and Estrin. Or even guys like Oscher who smokes Harman as a harp player. He's not even as technically gifted as Steve Guyger, another excellent, raw Chicago player.
Man, you don't know shit if you come on here and say Wilson isn't up there with the best.
If you're gonna start a pissing contest and declare who's "best" and who's not... Well, in my view James is one of the best and so is Kim. I would say that all of the top guys play with passion and invest emotion into their playing - but technique is a part of it. Otherwise we wouldn't have cats who swung their asses off.
I can't believe you wrote that. There must be a hole in your soul if you can't hear the passion in Wilson's playing on "Smokin' Joint" or when he backed up Pinetop on "Sunny Road Blues" or "Ida B'.
Harman is good, but Kim is best!
The question then is: Who is better?
