My guest this week is harmonica legend Charlie Musselwhite. Charlie has been one of the most loved and respected harp players from his early days in the clubs of Memphis and Chicago to his extensive solo recording career and his incredible sideman history playing on albums for Tom Waits, Ben Harper, Bonnie Raitt, John Lee Hooker and so many more. We talked about his playing style, influences, growing up in Memphis, and some of the highlights of a long and incredible career in music.
