Curly Joe Harper Blues

Image
Curly Joe Harper was a harmonica player and singer in the mid-Missouri blues community. Those who knew him say they will never forget the way he played his music. He was born July 25, 1949, in New Mexico and spent his life working as a musician in the Columbia area, often with the Curly Joe Harper Blues Band. Mr. Harper was a staple member of both the blues and music community in Columbia, Missouri. Both his personality and his musical talent will be missed.   If you support live Blues acts, up and coming Blues talents and want to learn more about Blues news and Fathers of the Blues, -  ”LIKE” ---Bman’s Blues Report--- Facebook Page!
