James Joshua Whiting (born December 16, 1949),[1] known professionally as Sugar Blue, is an American blues harmonica player.[2] He is best known for playing on the 1978 Rolling Stones album Some Girls, and well as his partnership with blues guitarist Louisiana Red.

The Chicago Tribune said, "The sound of Sugar Blue's harmonica could pierce any night...it's the sound of a musician who transcends the supposed limitations of his instrument."[3]
