  • Description

    "After playing 'Battle Of The Harmonicas' in San Francisco a few times, I created Texas’ own Harmonica Rumble and expanded the idea by making the harp players use the same back-up band. I booked the festival in Dallas at the Prohibition room for 4 years and then moved it to Antone’s in Austin for another 6 years. The festival did 3 tours in Europe and 1 in Russia. During this time, two Texas Harmonica Rumble albums were recorded. This new recording is a tribute to the great memories and a reunion of some of the best harmonica players in the world." - Eddie Stout (Dialtone Records) Fronting a small combo on each track, the singing harmonica players are Orange Jefferson (OJ), Lazy Lester (LL), Bobby Rush (BR), Sammy Myers (SM), Joe Jonas (JJ) and Mel Davis (MD). Tracks: Hey Warden (OJ) / That's All Right (LL) / Poison Ivy (BR) / Brain Dead (SM) / I Love My Baby (MD) / Blues From Beaumont Texas (JJ) / High Tempter (BR) / Honest I Do (LL) / Hot Air (BR) / Must Have Been The Devil (SM) / Salslow Blues (OJ) / Take Off Your Shoes (JJ) / Clean House (JJ) / You Can Have Your Cake (MD) / 19 Naught Naught (MD).
