    What are your favourite tracks/artists that make use of a harmonica- Springsteen, Dylan, Mazzy Star, Neil Young come to mind.
    It's an instrument that imo can be very powerful, when employed correctly.

    Johnny Marr plays a mean harmonica - not just Smiths stuff, he also plays it to superb effect on the The The (:pac:) album Mind Bomb.
