Hi Rex. First I’ll like to thanks you always answer my question Now r have another question When you playing do you use accompany tunes ? Which on line you use ?or which on line you recommend when I ply your song Thank you very much Frank
thank you so much for your question. i use backing tracks that can be found on youtube. here is the backing track i used for this one: ua-cam.com/video/paUzsOupyuo/v-deo.htmlsi=pCofILDGzzROnT1P Best wishes.
Oh wow absolutely incredible! Just bought myself my first Hohner Harmonica and wanna learn to play it. When I'm somewhere in Texas or Oklahoma I will play this song. Cheers from Poland!
I knew you never have tab but for this beautiful song I really got problems to follow you to play in the first beginning… Almost heaven West Virginia…..shenvannadah river.i was wondering for this section could you figure it out the what tab you play I’ll be very appreciate Frank
thank you for your question. here are the tabs you requested: Al-most Hea-ven, West Vir-gin-ia, Blue Ridge Moun tain, Shen-an-do-ah Ri- v- er -1 -1 +2 -1 +2 -1 +2 +3 -3” -3” -3 -3” +2 +2 +2 -1 +2 +3 +3 “ = bend whole step Best wishes on learning this song.
thank you very much. learning to play a beginner melody like 'twinkle twinkle little star" etc is not too difficult but mastering the instrument requires many hours of improvisation, trial and error, and persistence. Once you get the hang of it, it is hard to put down. Best wishes.
i've just started learning the harmonica and people like you is why! This is absolutely amazing and i'd be lucky if i ever am able to produce something as beautiful as you just did.
Wow!! That is one of the nicest compliments a person could ever receive. I appreciate it so much. Don't ever give up. Best wishes in your harmonica journey.
hello, magnificent performance, good rhythm and a frankly harmonious harmonica, I congratulate you sir and I warmly applaud you, I promise, see you very soon.
@@rexragland827 thanks Rex all is well. Recovering from a hip replacement. I'm not on Facebook anymore however I will be posting on my utube channel. Keep on harping. 👍
BRAVO REX, wunderschön gespielt! 'country' gehört natürlich auch zu meinem repertoire. höre meine 'welthits auf der 'mundharmonika': klicke meinen button, 14 videos.
vielen Dank für deinen Kommentar und deine Meinung. Ich habe mir deine Videos angesehen und angehört. sie sind ausgezeichnet. Herzliche Grüße aus den USA.
Great 👍🏼 I just thought about buying a harmonica. But I think I'm not talented enough. How long does it take for an absolute beginner to play like this?
Thank you very much. It is hard to say because there are several factors involved. I never learned to read music so i play strictly by ear. The most difficult part is learning to bend and control draw reeds 1-4 and blow reeds 7-10. But with practice and persistence it can be accomplished in a few months. I struggled with this because i didn’t have this basic knowledge. It just kind of happened and when it did, i couldn’t put it down. Good luck!!
@@rexragland827 Thank you for your answer! Really appreciate that. I now have my C harmonica for 3 weeks and I can already play simple melodies. Learning single notes at the beginning was difficult. But after 2 weeks it got better :)
This is the best harmonica version of this song I've heard. Love your technique. Where did you get the backing track. I would love to try and play this to a track. Thanks for sharing
thank you so much for your comment and view. Here is a link to the backing track: ua-cam.com/video/paUzsOupyuo/v-deo.htmlsi=gAa-xF4JZZDVzmu0 Warmest regards.
Great Song..Well done.This song can be played in the keys of “A" follow along on your "EAST:TOP (Diatonic) Harmonica” The very best ever made”.. If you don’t have one buy one now ... better yet .... buy the whole set of 12 Harmonicas "NOW ... yes today!" They are the very cheapest Harmonica you can buy , if you buy them from the bay they are. shipped free. (and they last a lifetime). I could never see myself playing any Harmonica except an East:top Harmonica. I will be making a cover of this song….soooooo…Look for it! NOW Subscribe and ding his bell!

Harmonica is so much more than blowing and suckin'. Hands, tongue and palette play a big role. He is a good example, Kudos!!
