Middle class, suburban ghetto.
Lester was part of the Excello label crew that included Slim Harpo.
The Excello sound inspired The Rolling Stones (who covered a couple of Slim Harpo tunes) and was the driving force behind the sound that made Creedence Clearwater Revival famous.
Lester recently gained long overdue celebrity by starring in a GEICO commercial opposite a gecko, playing harmonica on the porch and constantly interrupting the gecko.

Lazy Lester, harmonica player and master of Louisiana swamp blues, dies at 85
 
Thats kind of prophetic.
I just bought a harmonica the other day.....of course it was just to make my dogs howl.
Probably responding in kind....... :eusa_whistle:

But they seem to enjoy it because they come a runnin when you break it out.
