5 out of 5 stars This is harmonica blowin' at it's best!   November 26, 2004

I believe this man, Charlie Musselwhite, can blow the harp as no other can. The feeling and accuracy he applies is gut wrenchin'. If you like the blues harp than this CD will put chills up and down your spin. It does mine. It's definatly worth buyin'. I own it and it is one of my all time favorite blues CD's.


5 out of 5 stars I don't mean to harp on this...   April 4, 2002

...but when it comes to blues harp, Mr.Musselwhite is my favorite. For music to drive your vehicle fast to*, "Harpin' on a Riff" is as good as it gets. Slow sad blues? "Blues All Night". In between? "Hard Times".

*be safe and courteous, mind you.

If you like blues - adding this to your collection is like adding some cayenne pepper. It's hot - it's spicy - very authentic blues. At first you might not want to sit down and listen to an hour of Charlie - just put it in the CD changer with something milder. I was in a cab and the driver was playing Musselwhite. He said, "It's pure emotion. Pain. As if he was bleeding from his mouth. Like an old black man on a street corner in a Mississippi Delta town - playing his heart out." If you're like me - it won't take long 'til you listen to it straight up.
