Just received the book The Ultimate Miniature Harmonica Tunebook by Pat Missin. So using your videos to learn from I am truly enjoying this hobby. Health and prosperity to you and your family.
YOWAH..yesterday the weather was beautiful. I enjoyed a picnic, cigar, and friend beside secluded swamp. Saw person wearing shirt : Today is a great day to have a Great Day. ❤
Got to love a musician who cites Rogers & Hammerstein, John Coltrane, & Mongo Santa Maria all within the same paragraph! That's just one of the many reasons why you've played the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Stay safe on the road JR. ~ Greg Gordon 🎵
I love you Rickki, I actually learned on my own, but you and several others influenceed my playing style,this little instrument has saved my life twice keep rocking brother!!!!!😎👍🎶🎵🎶
Thank you 😊 I am still working on building my harmonica set. I get my Bb reed plate today. So far I have Seydel key of low D, key of A, key of G , Seydel big six key of A. Making music is so much fun.
Thanks Jason. So much to learn. And thanks for the tunes you used to demonstrate. Good luck in Europe. One of my closest friends, bass player by the name of Jack Gregg, lives in Paris. I didn’t see Paris on your itinerary , he would have loved to hear you. Originally from Memphis👍
Sometimes we have to take time to appreciate the world around us. I looked up at the blue sky, the birds fluttering in the air, the wind blowing, the sunshine. I thought to myself, DAMN, that tornado took my roof off!
Moon Cat !! I can play the natural minor scales on a reg tuned harp but i have trouble doing the harmonic minor scale with out using a specially tuned harp. So yes these lessons are invaluable to me. Thanks allot !! ALL HAIL FREE FRIDAY !!! Austin- 3:17
Great video, Jason! Maybe it goes back to what you said about things with two names being important, but I think it is more correct to call the chord in the 9th bar of "Thrill is Gone" the flat 6th. Especially in this instance, since it is usually played as a major 7th and the bVI major 7 is diatonic to the natural minor scale. Depending on context, the #5 and b6 can have a very different feel and color. But of course, if you tell your band to go to the #5 or the b6, they will know what you mean either way. Just a little pedantry 😂
I hear you. I think blues players tend to call it a raised 5th more often on that bar, since bar 9 is usually a V also since the next bar is a V, just seems to me that V is the ferret to be shared 😆 🤣 😂
Fantastic and important stuff, and he knows it inside out. Good for me, but I wonder if Jason is long into Charlie Parker’s view, “First you learn the instrument, then you learn the music, then you forget all that s**t and just play.”
i’m really going to try to listen to all this although i feel its beyond me having only learnt 2nd position and no minor really. I will try. Also I just lost my cat Mao Mao and Im heartbroken. You made me think he has at least 20 names : MaoMi, Mausinator, Chairman Mao, Maomalade, Maosemat, to name a few, so this made me smile. Please remember to do that Free Friday for me on a tour of your new house ( maybe in honour of Mao Mao too ) 😻🐾💔😔
So sorry about Mao! Below the video in the description box is a slower, more thorough walk through of each scale. That may be easier to follow as this is really just an overview for people that may already know them but I wondering why when and where ❤️ again sorry about your baby gato.
I love to practice with these scales. I just can't get anyone to play anything in them. So I make up for silent times on stage with them. Of course I get shut down like it's nothing as soon as the PA gets fixed. I feel stifled most of the time. Nothing is. Stopping me from learning more though.😊😊
Hy Jason great advise then if we do that scale play then rub out a note here and there we can write a perfect melody then add Ab∆13 slide to Bb∆3 as a precious cool how great did BBking become when he was given the knowledge like you Blues harmonica legend
Sorry about that! This is just an overview...The lessons linked below it in the description box explain each scale slower and easier and individually, one at a time maybe check those out. ❤️

Don’t know about that book…!? For tuning them?
❤️
@@ikust007 it is a song book with tabs for playing on the harmonica. I use it to learn to play songs on the seydel big six harmonica.

Amen!

Real sharp five is part of augmented chord or augmented scale

First comment! Thanks for another Free Friday. I have never really understood the difference between these scales, so this will be great for me.

Ohhhh ya education thumbs up everyone listen to the keen energy man and learn
Very thanks Jason🤟❤️
Love that minor sound. Time to bust out the chromatic. The easier softer way 😊Safe travels. God bless. ❤️🥁🎸😎
Rock on Billy!!
Great lesson! Thanks!
All the theory and names are really over my pay grade but still like it 😅

This lesson is a lot of fun
Thanks!!!
Thanks Jason,how often do you clean or drop your harps in water with a denture tab or etc.?
Pretty often once a week spray them inside and out with 91% isopropyl alcohol. About twice a year a thorough cleaning!
🎉
As on the road hands on the wheel
Thanks
Look like you're on a coastline.
Nice tutorial
Thank you! ❤️
Nice Video!
Glad you enjoyed it ❤️ 💙 💜

Nothing is. Stopping me from learning more though.😊😊
Nobody's playing any minor key songs? 😔
Love free fridayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Also my cats full name: Sir Shadow Scratch alot FlufferMuffin
the harmonic minor has the leading tone back to the tonic. The V chord is major. i-iv-V-i
From classical music theory it is not correct to call 6 scale of natural minor as raised fifth. It is actually flat 6.
I hear you and ACCEPT that but from a Blues players point of view on our chord changes it feels like a raised fifth 😆 🤣 😂
Ok, so all I need now is your brain and skills... Should be easy... right🤷♂️🤪
1d 2b 2" 3"' 3" -3 4b -4 who will name this scale in comments is a legend
Ukrainian Dorian ?
@@jasonricci Yes!!!
Hy Jason great advise then if we do that scale play then rub out a note here and there we can write a perfect melody then add Ab∆13 slide to Bb∆3 as a precious cool how great did BBking become when he was given the knowledge like you Blues harmonica legend
Oh shucks! I don't know! I do know BB studied music quite a bit though!
Like and comment
Bro in the back looks VERY displeased lmao
😆 🤣 😂 😹
Yo. J. Ricci. Whatchoo woried about? lol
Not too much actually 😆 🤣 😂
On the first tab of the video, you wrote 1D' bend instead of 1D Jason... i
Oops! Nice catch!
@@jasonricciI'm a Leo, so got good eyes... 😊 Very good lesson, I am beginning the work on harmonic minor as of now. Thanks J
Their age? I think they're all in their teens... 🙃
I'm FIFTY! 😆
@@jasonricciBarely. ❤
Good luck on the road Jason. Have to skip this lesson, too much technical music theory knowledge for this old guy. Could not follow.
