Texas Harmonica Rumble


Label founder, Eddie Stout: "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. This new recording is a tribute to the great memories and a reunion of some of the best Harmonica players in the world."
