My channel is all about telling stories using the Blues harmonica. My background from the world; way back when of modern jazz; multi instrumentalist. A modern jazz saxophonist, occasional flute, along side piano, guitar for composition etc. Blues harmonica has always been an integral part of me.
I have my own unique way of playing blues harp and my aim is to share a fraction of it on this channel.
Music has different functions; for me it's enrichment, yeah that's the function of music.

Harmonica Blues Using simple scale to show it's effectiveness
✌ 🎹 😎
Im a piano player primarily with only a little harmonica practice so take this next question with a grain of salt. If Ive selected a harmonica which is in the right key, and have a reasonably good ear, why would i bother with modes or even think to? If I move from my 1 chord to my 4 I still have all the notes of lydian over my 4 without changing anything. Ive never taken any serious instruction or lessons on harmonica so let me know if theres something im overlooking here. Ive found an understanding of modes more useful durring songwriting than actually playing on piano but have always taken a just go for it approach on harmonica. Enjoyed the video nice playing man.
I guess we all see things different as long as it works for you that's all good.
Thanks for the video! I'm still on my first harmonica, and maybe there is an obvious answer, but what would prevent someone just buying a brass sheet of the same thickness as reeds - around 1 to 1.5mm (those usually cost like less than 10USD/pounds/whatever), and cut them in the same shape as the reed and solder it in? With this technique, one could theoretically get a lifetime's supply of reeds from that single sheet.
Yes if you have the tools and precision and the time . why not Good Luck. Like all things it is how you chose to spend your time I guess. Best regards
Awesome 🤔 😊 💚 🙏
Great lesson, thank you!
Yeah, man!!! Good stuff! Great job!!!🔥
Cool groove
Ok, I will try this on the song “button legs” by Cindy Bradley. Will try to learn main verse, and chorus, without the notes, since I can’t find it on the internet.
i never heard summertime like that. great
dayum, man. SLICK. great
i like it. no one sounds like that.
Thanks for the video!!
ua-cam.com/video/k7a1MbwuWPU/v-deo.html is this okay?
intervals, relative pitch, i will try these concepts. thank you.
All solos should be different every time NOT set licks which everyone else shows and does. Learn to signify intent and pivot naturally from a point for departure. Play Truth. Learn right way from outset begin /inter/ Adv /search harpothehealerwix 😎
I've been using the "here comes the bride", to tune my lips. sort of like a guitarist tuning the strings before playing. otherwise i'd actually play the wrong notes, especially with all those half note intervals in the hole 3 draw. or when switching to another position.
thank you. i think this is a fun way to learn the major scale in other positions. plus learning that first note which is 4 intervals lower.
Sorry about your surgery…hope you’re doing ok! I practice harmonica in my head all the time.
Hey man…a new small harmonica centred channel! I just subscribed…interesting video brother…cool stories and I have mixed feelings about the Pentaharp. Anyhow…we building a small community of us harp players. 😎👍
man i wish i play 36 notes. i have a hohner meisterklasse, a suzuki promaster, and lee oskars. i can only overblow 4 through 6, and overdraw the 7. i wonder if i should buy a marine band.
Sounds as if your doing v well, anyway that's about all you need and very all good harmonicas. MB. white box I simply Prefer them.
🎼👍
~1 -2\\ -2, -2 -3\ 4, -4 -5 -4, 4 -3\ -2. i like this groove.
You are inspiring. Would you put the tabs out? That would be helpful.
I agree about using short and frequent sessions. The more times you struggle to remember something, the better you learn it. It's like you are eliminating all the wrong ways of remembering something.
Love mine in G so much. Just ordered a Low F. Kinda my favourite harps now. My DaBell in G is a close contender too. Powerful or what! 😮💨
cool riff. i like how you provide all the position changes too.
i like that groove. the tongue block chord produces a unique sound so cool.
sounds like a whole band. very creative.
that's quirky cool
that's cool. very unique sound, i like it.
The first is dark sound is good, second is bright is good too, i must have all of them...
Your waving brick wall is scaring?! 😂 Thanks for the video!
Listen to Dizzy Gillespie using his style of mute, and then listen to my chromatic scale. An exercise in sound production. ( The lesson here is about focus and imagination )
Hi! great video! could you pass us the sheet music? Best regards
Thanks It was just done by ear, best regards from UK
Marine Band is better!
Very good tutorial. Jimmy Reed played a lot in first position. Thanks for the harmonica tips.
Beautiful music! It is impressive to hear the harmonica. thanks for sharing 😍👍
Hi Richie. Great video, great groove, and really interesting breaking down the structure of the song. Robert Johnson is a particular favourite artist of mine too. He was an amazing guitar player and singer, and so many great compositions. cheers
Sounding good Richie lad!
Hey man great to hear from you , long time no see, all best regards
Excellent playing.
Note: I do 2 demos not 3 as I stated
nice
Hi Harpo. Great lesson. Works really well with the riff.
Great vid! Thanks mate. I play the Golden Melody and absolutely love them! Cheers
Lots of sublime technique going on here .
Thank you for the lesson , one of my favorite jamZ !
that's cool man
NOTE: I am relating everything here AS IF ON A C HARP IN SECOND POSITION
I have a question for you., is there any other note that I can use instead of the 6 overblow I believe it's 2nd position?! I can't for the life of me get the overblow..thanks
Hi Paul, yeah that's kind of the lesson situation as there can be different ways around it depending on what your playing in what octave. Here is a tip, Paul , have a listen to Paul Butterflied his idea on it can work quite well. best regards.
Is that a real brick wall? Looks like one near me that's all
At times I'm not sure myself ha but it is not the one near you I think. Best regards
