I love this picture of Jack with the harp. [ Anyone with a clue as to the other cat's identity? ]
I'm not sure how much Jack knew about tongue blocking or the 2 hole draw [technical terms for my harmonica peeps ;) ], but I do know he was always a Bluesman to his heart. Rest in Peace Brother Jack. May God Bless and Keep You Always.
Below are some links to see and hear the man and to get in touch with his poetic soul. Peace.
