Sugar Blue at the Blues 'n Brews Festival in Westford, MA on Aug. 21, 2010 Rico Mcfarland (guitar), Pooky Styx (drums), Ilaria Lantieri (bass), George Papageorge (keys)
I saw him has his band at an outdoors concert in Bay City Michigan, sometime in the 1990's. The band starts playing -- but no Sugar Blue! Then we begin to hear a harmonica. And then there is Sugar Blue in the middle of the crowd, wearing his bandoleer of harmonicas. He begins to walk around the crowd up toward the stage. Attacting a crowd of little kids parading behind him. Man, the man was brilliant.
Love ya Sugar Blue...You are a Great Man..You are A "Star Producer"..I met you in this life..keep believing in yourself..because you make others believe in themselves...thanks
I met Sugar Blue at the Up and Under Pub on Brady St. in Milwaukee in late 1990's. That's all I can post publicly. A great down to earth man and fun to hang with.
a band of this nature playing in front of large crowds should have learned how to adjust the volume of the other instruments so they don't crowd out the harp player, there is no way he can play loud enough to 0vercome the other instruments. It shouldn't be a competition to see who can play the loudest.
Definitely not D. I can play along with this on a G harp 3rd position. I can’t play anywhere near as slickly as this, but it’s the right key. I can also scrape by on an F second position but involves some fiddly bending, doesn’t flow as well and doesn’t give ready access to all the notes. The song itself is in Am

I was grateful to play drums behind Sugar and Lurie and Carey Bell one night at Rosa's in Chicago, and I will never forget it :)
This is the guy that did the harp on the original Stones version. Awesome stuff, Sugar Blue rocks!

I miss you Sugar Blue. Thank you from Chicago
only the Stones could put a harmonica in a disco song and make it one of the top disco songs of the 70's.
Great Harmonicist, Great Bass playerin, good band, Real Rock-and-Roll
I Always found the hormonica part on the very end of the Miss You outro too good to be true. Turns out...
Great live performance. Wish I was there.
many thanks, awesome, not just Sugar, so cool
Ok, the Band is not called "Rolling Stones"...and this is perhaps the difference...I participated in some live concerts, and I was pretty excited ...
That was fucking badass
@sonnyboyterry Agreed..Rockin this now!
song is in A minor with a G harmonica. 3rd position
Dig that bass player too.
This is the style John Popper learned and i believe it was from listening to Sugar Blue he was inspired from.
これがキッカケなのか。カッコいい。
@Johndocholiday01 3rd position G harp over the song that is in Am root.
What one might call awesome, if one used that kind of language!
La chica del bajo debe ser muy interesante

Sorry but nothing exciting in his music now.
