Geezer Alert" I saw Stevie do this in 1963 on one of those all-star Murray the K (you could look "The Fifth Beatle" - probably self-proclaimed - up, if you're too young to remember him) shows at the Brooklyn Fox, along with people like Little Anthony & the Imperials.

I love the place where Stevie starts up again and one of the players calls "Stevie, what key? What key?" A great rock 'n' roll moment!
He wasn't Little Walter on his harmonica at this point (and they really should've miked him better), but he didn't need to be.
It was mesmerizing to me at the time.
