Two of the greatest shows I ever saw-one was an all night jazz concert in Cambridge Mass in the 70s at a church. I specifically remember a lady vocalist playing with Steve Swallow, doing a killer version of Deep Tango. No harp. Just amazing music. Another was seeing Muddy Waters live at a bar, somewhere in Boston. Everyone was banging beer pitchers in time with the music. I thought they were going to tear the place down. So I'm a jazz snob and a Muddy Waters junkie.
Actually right now, Ali Farke Toure is on permanent loop on my tape deck. Again, no harp. Which means plenty of space to add harp. I love the African waltz stuff that he does.I haven't gpt the feel for his music yet, but I have a feeling Sonny Terry would fit right in.
