    Uncle Charlie McCoy, taught me how to play growing up and you did a great job showing his work. Harmonically yours!

    Man your short haircut and low profile ear rings are way better looking.
    Thanks for the riffs . Great instruction as always.

      Some of those older videos even shock me ha ha. I've been enjoying the shorter hair but I can't guarantee I won't turn back into a freaky, long-haired hippy. I have also been known to shave my head on occasions.

    Yes. Charlie McCoy is Hall Of Fame status for Harmonica playing! To play riffs like his is like wearing a badge of honor. You do an excellent job of showing how he does it. I only live one hundred miles from Nashville so about an hour and a half drive I can get to venues where many great players can be heard. You are as accomplished as many of them. Keep on showing us what you know. Another great country Harmonica player is Willie Nelson's Micky Raphael. His playing on Willie's recording of "If you've got the money I've got the time" is fantastic. I look forward to other UA-cam videos from you.

      Someone else suggested looking at that song so I'll check it out. You're lucky living so close to Nashville. I live at the bottom of the world near Antarctica. Not a lot of action here so we have to make it ourselves.

    Love this stuff! More please! Have you ever listened to Mickey Raphael's solo on an old Willie Nelson tune “If You've Got The Money, Honey, I've Got the Time”? It’s full of riffs like this. Would love to hear your breakdown of that one. I'm just full of ideas for you to spend your time on!

    Charlie McCoy mentions for his fast licks tongue blocking allows more speed. What’s your thoughts on this and is this what your doing for the 7-6 last riff here in this video?

    • @HarmonicaForTheSoul

      I tongue block on almost everything I play. I'm a bit naff at lip pursing so I can't compare the two methods but I find the tongue is amazing for aiding in playing notes precisely and I think it helps me play faster.

      @ thanks for the reply mate. So for these 3 licks in this video you are tongue blocking all them correct?
