Funny- I thought the bassless band sounded GREAT! I guess it's because I grew up listening to Little Walter... the great majority of LW's recordings were made without a bass player.
The harp player / bass player / singer who is on tour with Margolin and Morganfield is Tad Walters. This young man is very good!
