Who's the best blues harp player.


Personally, I think it's a toss up between Sonny Terry, James Cotton and Little Walter. Any Thoughts.

BILLY BOY ARNOLD / JAMES COTTON / CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE / SLIM HARPO / PAUL BUTTERFIELD / JERRY PORNOY / SILAS HOGAN / JUNIOR WELLS / LAZY LESTER / LITTLE WALTER.
Rick Estrin-Little Charlie and the Nightcats. Great player and fun music. Remember Fun Music. Check out Crawling Kingsnake on Little Charlie and the Nightcats Captured Live.Get down and get real funky.
All these guys are good, but when I heard Paul Butterfield play, I was blown away. Listen to him on the live song:"Everything's Gonna Be Alright." And you'll know!
I agree: Sugar Blue has chops comin' outta his chops! However, I have to go with Sonny Boy Williamson II, Junior Wells, James Cotton, William Clarke, Sonny Terry, Kim Wilson, Billy Branch. As for an all-time fave, it'd be a toss up between James Cotton and Junior Wells.
