Favourite tracks (with harmonica usage)

When the Levee breaks - Led Zeppelin

Third time this has been nominated. Shout out for Zepparella's version, which is pretty fucking good too. And she's nearly as pretty as Robert “Percival”.

Bit amazed that nobody's nominated “Train Time”. Just Bruce and Baker. Eric sat it out. Obviously, I'm thinking of the version on Wheels of Fire. But there are at least a couple of other live recordings available. Astonishing.

Probably been mentioned but, The Smiths being The Smiths, they did their thing of using traditional instruments in ways that nobody else had done before. I don't think I even realised it was a harmonica making those sounds until I read the sheet music.
 
Has anyone mentioned Show Biz Kids by Steely Dan ? Great harmonica by Walter Becker at the end in the song that inspired the Super Furry Animals !
 
The Wizard by Sabbath
Nobody’s Fault but Mine by Zeppelin
I Guess that’s why they Call it the Blues by Elton John (solo by Stevie Wonder)
Piano Man by Billy Joel
 


Not the biggest fan of theirs (and a couple of mates who are don't like this particular song) but this has a bit of everything in it.

It was the first song that came into my head that had an harmonica in it.
