my father played me the harmonica some nights when i was a kid, now he doesnt do it anymore. Listenning to you is like listening my father, the energy and purity is amazing, pls dont stop playing harmonica never.
Ma mère jouait de l.harmonica lorsque j etais enfant. J adore ce son qui me donne des sensations de dingue. Je joue d oreille certaines musique mais pas du blues que j adore. J ai l.intention de me racheter un harmonica et d apprendre a jouer le blues. Ça me prend les tripes. . Merci pour ce son mélodieux.
You should play some too, just for the nostalgia and fun. Doesn’t have to be anything complicated even if you just do basic single note songs or a few chords it’s still real fun and great way to honor the memory.
@MsSilentlightning Nowasays my father and I have not spoken for 4 years.I made bad decisions in my life to get to that point but the music keeps his memory
@@mielfandi566 a father never hates their child regardless. Trust me . Ive done bad things to my family. But a father is always there with open arms. It took years to get his trust back. Sometimes i feel like they still don't trust me. But it's in my head. Hope you mend that relationship with your father. If it's something he did to you. I haven't been there. But like they say. Father we only have one
Make the guitar talk & sing the notes that make you feel it deep inside. 30 notes in 1 bar just confuses the feeling that you are trying to make everybody feel. Damn right
Gave me chills. I’m old, takes a lot to give me chills these days. Gonna break out some old blues albums I’ve been neglecting. Fine harmonica work, just fine.
@@jerrycohencohen8901 same. I’m determined to transcribe this and learn it as best I can. Will’s style of play is exactly what I’ve been looking for as a guitarist turned harmonica addict.
I've been a blues guitarist for 67 years playing in studios, behind big names, etc. I've played with some famous harp players. This is some top notch reed bending right here!
I’m 50, tinkles a bit with the guitar in my youth, acoustic and a bit of electric, was never good but got enjoyment from it, especially blues music. Attempted the blues harp but never got far with it. Listened to this guy and this is my kind of blues, nice and slow and sleazy, strip joint sound. I’m blown away with this guys style. Never heard of this guy until til I saw this and his freebies harmonica solo. This guy is amazing and seems to play with such ease also.
@@kfiatooh666 I’d say there’s both, some people can come outta the womb and be naturally better at something. But I would agree that talent without pursuing is dead, and I can tell for sure this guy has put a whole lotta work into his craft
@@kfiatooh666incorrect there is only ones concept of themselves. Training and hard work alter you concept of yourself and THAT is the real reason you improve at something. As for "natural talent" that is when you just believe you are good enough to succeed at whatever is it you are trying
Will.will you play gershwins summertime. No flourishing. Just like porgy and bess.you truly are the best harmonica player. It was me that sent you the black plastic Guinness harp👍👍
Will’s master class course will have you playing like this in a very short time. I couldn’t believe how easy he made playing the blues harp. He’s a great teacher.
Absolutely over the top phenomenal! A revelation. How could 64 people have given a thumbs down? I genuinely feel bad fir anyone that can’t appreciate that performance.
I've listened to a lot of harp over the years and the skill level here is as good as any I've ever seen or heard and that includes, Junior Wells, James Cotton, and Charlie Musselwhite. Two of which I saw live...
I was gonna say James Cotton! Definitely should be proud to be in the same sentence as James for sure!! Been listening this evening and found a large playlist with the best of them and yes, this guy right here was in that list, as he should be 👋👋👋
So true....he conjured up some long gone harp players in his playing. Made me pick up my harp tonite for the first time in 30 years and try to do some of these blues notes and shake off the usual boring campfire harp style that I grew up with.
Just imagine them sitting in their soiled underwear in their mothers basement, hating the world and anything good. They are very fat and live off Doritos and coke.
In my career I spent many years in Chicago. Did an open mic at a place called The Kingston Mines on Monday nights. You never knew who would show up. Shared a stage with Little Walter, Junior Wells, Sugar Blue, Corky Siegal, James Cotton, Howard Levy over those years. They're all top 100 alltime. This guy has as much soul as anybody. The best thing about him is he lets the song BREATHE. Love his playing. Awesome restraint. THIS is a clinic on how it's done. Listen up everybody.
This is in no way a diss, I mean this as a complete compliment, but I realized my dog liked Harmonica noises so I looked up relaxing Harmonica music and got to your video and he literally laid next to the phone, curled up into a ball and went to sleep... he's a 10 week old chihuahua crackhead so getting him to calm down and sleep is such an amazing feat. Thank you!
That medellon ? They all where them ,musicians,$9,pray for him, you must be the one God singled out to bring the savior into his life,he fervent prayer of a righteous man avils much.
@@richardleetbluesharmonicac7192 will you explain? I feel like something is telling me something bc I keep coming across these type of messages. Like I’ve never watched a harmonica video before. But I don’t understand any of this
@@idontknowmuch3441 it has to do with how many musicians will sell their souls to the devil in exchange for musical abilities. since he's playing the blues and he's wearing a pentagram it's just kind of suggesting the robert johnson esque folklore, or led zeppelin.
@berenrussell try it out, it is a very friendly instrument, you will be able to play in a short time, and it is beautiful. My advice is try not buying a very cheap one, because it makes everything difficult. Cheers, ando good luck!
Musicians are usually folks with thier issues angst and depression. Some of the most talented are egomaniacs. I was like that I would judge and rate everyone. Harmonicas players never talked. It was huge ego trip. With big ego comes big insecurity. I one day woke and realized that harp players are all different. No two play the same. An average player brings a lot of ether to the the band. So now I’m friendly and appreciate everyone unless they have an attitude. Envy and ego is evil
I’ve had that happen with bands. We rock. I get a bunch of attention on breaks and they notice it and the minute an insecure band member perceives you are stealing the spotlight the Bromance is over if they say tone down. I already know when to play and when not to play but I’ll never be told to play intentionally mediocre.
I’ve been teaching myself harmonica for the past 6 months to help me quit smoking(which it did)and I couldn’t figure out how to play with my soul, but god damn I feel it now. Thank you brother
If Lester were here today he MIGHT would have changed his tune sayin' remove your star and were '' Going to the church'' and this time I'm goin to stay, and started playing Sonny Terry ''People get ready'' lol Great job he was truly one of my all time favors and influences on my tone and playing . Thanks for keeping his style going.
I know this post is incredibly old in UA-cam terms, but I just listen to it for the first time. Just started playing the harmonica in August and what I just listen to is what I aspire to be able to play. That was amazing! Thank you for sharing.🐠🦯☺️
This interpretation is one of the most spectacular I've ever heard!! simply breathtaking and hair-raising!! You have the true blues spirit on the harmonica! for more genuine talents in modern music!
Toll gespielt. Ich finde es grandios. Spiele diesen Song sehr gerne so gut ich kann (keine Tabs), da er mich an meine Mutter erinnert, die vor 3 Wochen ihre Augen schließen musste. 😥 mach einer schweren Krankheit. Wünsche allen ein schönes Weihnachtsfest. Möge es allen es allen. Viele liebe Grüße
That is some excellent blues harp my man. I'm 70 and started listening all the great blues at 18. Always loved Muddy Waters since always had a harmonica player in his band. Started playing harp at about 18 and used the tongue curl technique because my step-dad showed me that technique. You got the blues in you Will.
I’m a harp player and love to harp. Now, I’m not pro for sure but I’m learning. It’s a fun and rewarding instrument and it feels great to get better. This is truly inspirational.
Been playing over 50 years. Like the last guy said it not how many notes you can cram into a measure its about how you can make them talk and feel to you. You know the message you want to send. Practice until you dont have to think about it, then you can start communicating that what you want to say and express. This dude does a nice job. Dont dwell on the technical
I can listen this over and over and it turns me on over and over and everytime rises my hair all over my body! I just can’t help it! That’s blues! That’s real music and I am not stick made!
That was so nice and that repetitive run , kept the timing and tone throughout was unreal . Thank you for this and I'm so glad you were gifted with this love of music so strong it can change people's lives .
Will was passed years ago by many legends, but he is strong, very strong and will continue to play catch up I am afraid. Pretty hard to surpass Little Walter, Butterfield, Junior, Musselwhite, Portnoy, Sonny Boy and a few others. I especially like that Will can suck the reeds out of the harp and as well play slow and sweet while remaining clean and soulful.
I started on harmonica as a kid and switched to guitar and my teen years is making me wanting to pick the harp up again. Dang brother. Simply fantastic
what the hell is it that a harmonica can express such feeling? well, in the hands of a master like this... in my hands it's about as versatile as a juice harp. ... excellent my dude. got my sonny boy little walter fix for the day.
I freaking love evreything in this video, the music, the guys style, the rings, the background, the pacing, it all reminds me of a sunny day in which ppl stare startled from the heat and how at that moment you feel how fragile we are and yet how resilient, idk what im talking about, just let my mind wander but listening to this reminds me of that (i come from a hot contry but i had to go abroad in a cold place and damn i miss the heat 😅)
Blow that harmonica. You blowin the soul out that thing.Reminds of when I was I young boy in Louisiana. Both my grandfathers could blow the hell out of harmonica. Use to listen to them play zydeco and blues.
@@warlleyfelipe9222 I have a Special 20 and a Marine Band so I thought they were pretty OK... The Special 20 is definitely easier to bend. Thanks for the advice, i'm getting there 🙂
Tip which helped me control bends, particularly the micro tonal steps in the three hole draw was to put my front teeth together to shrink the rnouth cavity and physically limit the relative space which the tongue has to move in.
It won't take much to get it. Just sit around with a C in your hand and keep trying to bend. You can watch TV or movies at the same time, just relax, try some bends, relax, and all of sudden it will start working and then you will have it. A few beers helped me.

Listen to Moreland and Arbuckle

Newbies take note……It’s not all about how many notes you can cram into a measure. Slow down and play with you soul.

Could you specify which ones please?
God damn lord. That harmonica ain't talking at this point, it is singing.
The harmonica is the greatest representation of the raw emotion behind the 1-4-5 pattern. Love it.

I really enjoyed that... the Harmonica is such an underestimated musical instrument.
Me too. It’s one of the few instruments that can convey feeling alone or with minimal backing

“Buddy Greene” The William Tell Overture by Rossini. This is done on the harmonica with no accompaniment.

Great playing, I wish you more great times Harmonica 🌹
This isn’t blowing on a harmonica, this is emotion expressed through his breath with a metal box in the path
Beautiful sense of time and space. The brother aint thinkin, he is doin.
LOL. Who is the one dislike? So nice to hear someone playing notes tastefully and not relying on gear to get tone. Yes, I hear the reverb.

I can listen this over and over and it turns me on over and over and everytime rises my hair all over my body! I just can’t help it! That’s blues! That’s real music and I am not stick made!
Right on brother! Love it
Makes me want to sit back, close my eyes, and chill
That was so nice and that repetitive run , kept the timing and tone throughout was unreal . Thank you for this and I'm so glad you were gifted with this love of music so strong it can change people's lives .
yeah
The modern master of harmonica superb
You have started my day this morning with an electrifying jolt! Thank you so much Will for sharing your absolute gift with us all 💚
My pleasure! thanks Deb
Thanks!
Wow. The longer you watch the more impressive it gets. Amazing.
Finally a jam that incorporates enough harmonica. Outstanding performance
You make the world a better place by sharing your talent. Thank you.
Will, no one will surpass your playing the blues. You set a very high bar. BRAVO, Will.!
Will was passed years ago by many legends, but he is strong, very strong and will continue to play catch up I am afraid. Pretty hard to surpass Little Walter, Butterfield, Junior, Musselwhite, Portnoy, Sonny Boy and a few others. I especially like that Will can suck the reeds out of the harp and as well play slow and sweet while remaining clean and soulful.
I finally ordered MY Wilde Tuned harps. Damb I can't wait...Wilde tuning has upped my game 3 fold Proud to have them. Thank You Will!!!!!!
Absolutely incredible! Incredible vibes from this man, keep it up!
I can totally imagine muddy waters singing along. Absolutely awsome.
OUT OF THIS GALAXY! NO ONE WILL SURPASS YOUR EXPERTISE, Will. Bow down to the master! WICKED! You have unbelievable breath control!
I can't get enough of your performances!
this is absolutely amazing! The Mastery it requires to play what you're playing is insane.....absolutely beautiful!!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
From someone that cant get one single note from a harmonica 😮 that has rendered me speechless 😮😮😮😮😮
I started on harmonica as a kid and switched to guitar and my teen years is making me wanting to pick the harp up again. Dang brother. Simply fantastic
2/17. Good afternoon, Will. You will never be surpassed by other harmonica players! OUTSTANDING!
Dude. That harmony just broke my heart... Thanks for taking me with you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Just found this musician. Wow man. Wow. My girl said she loves the harmonica. We listened to about 5 of your songs ❤
No idea why this was in my recommended but I'm here for it! This dude is a whole ass vibe!
what the hell is it that a harmonica can express such feeling? well, in the hands of a master like this... in my hands it's about as versatile as a juice harp. ... excellent my dude. got my sonny boy little walter fix for the day.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
Damn. You make a lot of us look like we're playing with a toy. Straight up perfection and an inspiration. Did I mention Damn.
I freaking love evreything in this video, the music, the guys style, the rings, the background, the pacing, it all reminds me of a sunny day in which ppl stare startled from the heat and how at that moment you feel how fragile we are and yet how resilient, idk what im talking about, just let my mind wander but listening to this reminds me of that (i come from a hot contry but i had to go abroad in a cold place and damn i miss the heat 😅)
That is big work love it
Excellent, j adore trés bon blues,merci Man
Class act, bro. Really hope to see you live in Switzerland as soon as possible.
Watching Cowboy Bebop and a character was playing the harmonica. Looked up how to videos and came across this. Freaking killer man. 🤙
Lmao this is exactly how I got into harmonica as well!
@@pancakelover5285 i gotta buy one as well, cowboy bebop was the inspiration 😻
Same reason here bro
That is likely the greatest performance bar none that I’ve ever seen on ANY instrument !!
Thank you sir !!
Thank you very much!
Blow that harmonica. You blowin the soul out that thing.Reminds of when I was I young boy in Louisiana. Both my grandfathers could blow the hell out of harmonica. Use to listen to them play zydeco and blues.
Chills the whole time man, so much said with nothing being spoken.
I've got a little discouraged learning how to bend on the harmonica but this gets me really motivated to push on!! Absolutely love this, thanks.
If you having a hard time learning how to bend, check your harmonica quality, low quality harmonicas are way more dificult to bending.
@@warlleyfelipe9222 I have a Special 20 and a Marine Band so I thought they were pretty OK... The Special 20 is definitely easier to bend. Thanks for the advice, i'm getting there 🙂
Tip which helped me control bends, particularly the micro tonal steps in the three hole draw was to put my front teeth together to shrink the rnouth cavity and physically limit the relative space which the tongue has to move in.
It won't take much to get it. Just sit around with a C in your hand and keep trying to bend. You can watch TV or movies at the same time, just relax, try some bends, relax, and all of sudden it will start working and then you will have it. A few beers helped me.
Just shut your eyes and get carried away with the blues. Awesome
Goosebumps all over. Exellent piece.
Very nice. I am 76 yrs and have played in bands for many years as a guitarist but loved the harp.
