Born in Chicago in 1956, Corritore is undoubtedly the great protagonist in the evolution of the harmonica as an instrument that has continued to be popular and decisive in contemporary blues since his first appearance, at the age of 23, in William Buck's band alongside Louis and Dave Myers, Big Moose Walter and Odie Payne. His career developed in Chicago and Phoenix, a city where he settled in 1981 for a period of time, and from where he established himself not only as a decisive harmonica player but also as a producer, promoter and diffuser of the genre. Corritore has in his archives hundreds of hours of recordings made during years of work with many of his mates such as Louisiana Red, Henry Gray, Bob Margolin, John Primer, Dave Riley, Kid Ramos or Tail Dragger among many others. His addiction to recording studios has led him to appear in the credits of dozens of sessions, making him the most active and requested blues harmonica player in recent decades.
