It sure sounds like Charlie Musselwhite. Adding him to the roster was one of Tom's masterstrokes. His playing draws out the Chicago blues elements in Waits' sound without creating a pastiche or something imitative. Charlie is a master of blues harmonica and a perfect Waits collaborator. There's one thing to talk about here - Charlie's tone! Magnificent. I could listen to this all day!
