OK, so it's not a lesson, or if it was, there was, that part is either edited out or was in print. So, here's a few tips for someone wanting to learn this Bill Withers tune, totally unsolicited but since I was just playing with a band that does it I had to figure out a few things. Tune is in A Minor, and he's playing it in 2nd position on a D harp. The opening notes (which are the main melody lick) are E, G,A, C, B, A . E is first hole draw, to get G that's a 2nd hole draw whole step bend, then A is 2nd hole draw unbent, the C is half-step draw bend on hole 3, the B is a whole step draw bend on 3, then back to A. If you can handle those bends, the rest of the tune comes along pretty easily. FYI you can also play this with no bends on a C diatonic harmonica ( the E would be your 5th hole blow and easy to figure out from there) but it does sound bluesier with those bends on a D. It is also a good exercise in bending for practice with something to check your pitches (tuner or a keyboard). Hope this helps. Tune is written out in "The Real Blues Book" (Hal Leonard) in A minor and there's a great live version by Bill Withers on UA-cam that handily is in the same key. Hope this helps somebody out there.
Absolutely amazing. Great job. I just stated playing and have gotten frustrated and wanted to quit but this motivates me to keep trying. PLEASE POST THE TABS
Excellent!! No lesson of course, but if you are an intermediate player you can run the clip through VCL player, slow down the tempo and teach you the song yourself, solid bending skills are required though. Not a beginner's song.

Sometimes I feel like I'm making some progression on my harmonica. Then I watch something like this and realize what a beginner I still am! lol

+Wysoki Level Its a lesson on how to not make a lesson.
Its a lesson to up your game
Excellent!! No lesson of course, but if you are an intermediate player you can run the clip through VCL player, slow down the tempo and teach you the song yourself, solid bending skills are required though. Not a beginner's song.
lesson?
Nice! But no lesson? The header says "Harp Lesson - Bonny B. - Ain't no sunshine "
Y ahora como me la aprendo:)?
Go look up "lesson" up in a dictionary, pall. This thought us less then poop on a roof.
Pspisripoff you learn and get inspired by watching him
Id rather say its opposite to inspiring.
It made me realize how terrible i am at playing it, haha
@@Pspisripoff then would it being a lesson make any difference? Prob not lol
Excellent playing but its far from a lesson
