A few years ago, The The (Matt Johnson and whoever he's playing with at the time) toured behind his "Dusk" album, and the show I saw (Nassau Coliseum) featured Johnny Marr on Guitar and Jim Fitting (Treat Her Right - which morphed into Morphine, without Jim) on harp - some very good harp playing live (I think only one or two songs on "Dusk" feature harp, but Jim played throughout the set, including some inventive harp arrangements on the band's earlier "hits". So I guess it's like a "six degrees of Kevin Bacon" thing.
