Yuguchi is from Japan but came to America hoping to learn more about the blues. He finally settled in Chicago in the late 1980s. I stopped by the record store. There’s a blues sign so I went like, what is that type of music? he said. So I just picked up one of the records; there’s a Black man with a harmonica.
He has been playing the harmonica ever since and said it s not easy. I don’t know how to read it, Yuguchi said. I don’t know how to write it. I just play by ears.
