Harmonica CD List
This is the list of CDs (,MTs and LPs) featuring harmonica in the world. Harmonica featured CD is included if it is not the album of harmonica player(s). For example, "37.2 C Le Matin" is a soundtrak of the movie, but my list includes it. CD which harmonica is used in a little part is not included.
The source of the list is partly my own CD, and partly information from others. I do not (and cannot) check all informations, so please use this list at your own risk.
I want to make all CD (,MT and LP) lists featuring harmonica, But the ones I know are very few. If you would be so kind to make a little effort to tell me by E-mail (PFD00763@nifty.ne.jp) about harmonica CDs you know (in the format of the list below, if possible), I would be very happy, and I think it would do many people who read this page also happy.
