Dadrian Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) We have lost one of the greatest musicians in history. Surely you've heard this guy play harmonica, guitar, or even whistling somewhere in your life. His career is really amazing. He passed at 94 years young, and he truly left his mark on the world.

Tony D. Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Very sad.....Toots Thielemans was a giant in the music business. He was featured on many records by top performers. Thank you Dadrian for those videos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony D. Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 I was looking at Toots Thielemans bio because I thought he was on Henry Mancini's albums. Sure enough, he played that beautiful harmonica on "Moon River." He was also on Midnight Cowboy & Soldier in the Rain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also loved his harmonica work on Billy Joel's "Leave a tender moment alone " track from 1984 and Joel's "Innocent Man " album 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
