I am part of the global harmonica community. I guess being interested and involved in the harmonica community over many years has lead me to be elected as Vice-President of HarmonicaUK, and that's quite an honour - the President is Paul Jones from the Manfreds/The Blues Band
If you love harmonica lessons but don’t love me try Joe Filisko, David Barrett, Tomlin Leckie, Liam Ward, Adam Gussow, Ronnie Shellist and there are others!
When I heard Elwood Blues playing blues harp in the Blues Brothers film from the 80s, I couldn't get over the crazy sound of the harmonica. I watched the film over and over - even watched it last night! Had to get me a harmonica...
Seeing Paul Lamb playing the Station Tavern in London was the final straw - I started having lessons from him and became a Sonny Terry nut. From there Little Walter, Big Walter and gradually found out about all the greats.
Brendan Power introduced me to other players such as Charlie McCoy, JJ Milteau, Howard Levy and then I was hooked !
I started teaching professionally in 1995 while studying how to teach and began running workshops in London inherited from Brendan Power as he was joining Riverdance. The first lesson in school I taught in was Dulwich College in London and then in Bristol.
I've had the luck to study personally with Howard Levy (one week residential), Paul Lamb, Brendan Power, Joe Filisko, Richard Sleigh, Carlos del Junco, Sonny Terry (recorded lesson) and in workshops with Charlie McCoy, Lee Oskar, Steve Baker, Keith Dunn, Rick Estrin, Rick Epping, Adam Gussow amongst lots others - and thanks to all of them for the help which I now pass on to other students.
Performance wise, I have played in many blues bands, and different musical groups as well as performing solo and on cruise ships. I've played on the same bill as Larry Adler in 2000, jammed in concert with Jools Holland and had a long, hilarious and fascinating lunch with Billy Connolly showing him some harmonica techniques he wanted to know about.
Fine players of the harmonica include Big Walter, Little Walter, Sonny Terry, Sonnyboy Williamson Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Jason Ricci, Adam Gussow, Mick Jagger, Brian Jones, Robert Plant, Steve Tyler, Taj Mahal, Kim Wilson, Charlie Musselwhite, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Reed, Larry Adler, Dave Gage, Furry Lewis, John Popper, John Sebastian, Neil Young, Bruce Willis, Sugar Blue, William Clarke, Paul Delay, Tom Ball, Mark Hummel, Jerry Portnoy, JJ Milteaux, Rod Piazza, Gary Primich, Rob Paparozzi, Joel Osborne, Shakira Starr, Alanis Morisette, Bono, David Bowie, Darth Vader, John Mayall, John Gindick, Jonny Mars, John Lennon, Allman Brothers, JP Allen.

Chrom and diatonic are different tools in the tool box - different pos and negs for each
It's a shame the older Golden Melodies are discontinued as I absolutely love these harps. They're so fun to play anything on them. I personally love them because of their tone and how comfortable they are to hold.
Go to the shops and buy them up now!
ahh that's hohner's tradition,just like the old 1896 and the new ones.I prefer old ones.
I’m hoping it’s an either/or situation,maybe the new one and the original will both be out,side by side
But idk yet
I hope that’s the case
@@sepultura7771 we will know in a few days
I can't even get it so far. I got the new model but I still need the old one. Anybody help me, pls.
Although I haven't seen the new models yet,the new instruction book in hohner harmonica packages had showed the appearance of the new model.Seems like the cover plates are fixed on both sides of the harmonica than on the top of harmonica.I'm looking forward to it cause now golden melody are almost out of stock!
We will know in a few days
Just in time for this review to be outdated. The launch for the new version will be on the 23rd.
Just in time? This was filmed in 2008 I think. It may have recently resurfaced just in time for the NEW version.
@@harmonicamastery this shows that you uploaded this 17 hours ago. Maybe something weird happened. Good video by the way.
@@harmonicamastery a lot of your videos lately say they were posted in the last week or two even though I’ve watched some of them years ago
@@chrishammonds72 well spotted! Some of them are now being revamped, re-edited, enhanced audio, and or visual, and with new thumbnails.
Here visiting your house.
Thumbs up for your video. 19👍👍👍
Viewed to the end.
Come to my house.
They’re coming out with a new golden melody and abonding this design
😰
Yes I saw that as well - interesting
I really don't like the new golden melodies. What more can I say? The older ones just have that look and feel.
ok thanks
