Getting Good at One Thing! (Key of "A" Harmonica)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 лют 2024
- Get good at one thing! So important! Recently I got a comment on UA-cam asking: "Is it better to learn a little bit of a lot of things a little or ONE thing really well?" GREAT question. I think right now I will say, as this may change that I believe it's better to learn ONE thing really well. Why? Well because what we learn by intensely studying one subject actually teaches us better how to study in general so whatever we're learning we absorb the multiple possibilities, variations and subtleties. We'll take a look at all that and more in this comprehensive lesson while using for an example ONLY the very useful and cool 7th Chord Arpeggios for a I/IV/V 12 bar Blues progression. COMPLETE lessons on 7th Chords are linked and available below.
I'm using an Hohner Marine Band, Jason Ricci Signature Model Harmonica, from Tom Halchak of Blue Moon Harmonicas, entirely in the key of "E" (2nd Position/Cross Harp). I'm Also using A Jason Ricci Signature Microphone.
Pedals: Harp Shield (Anti Feed Back), into a Harp Break (Preamp/distortion), Into a Flat Cat Compressor, into a V3 Delay, into a Harp Reverb.
All those products are from Randy Landry of the Lone Wolf Blues Company and they're are links for all them and more below as well. Amp: Harp Gear HG 50. Enjoy!

Good quote from a good book!
Happy 50th, young man . I was 70 yesterday , 30 years of playing and , my kids brought me a green bullet. Wow ..Too much much information out there. The only advice you need to learn, is Jason Ricci . Thats what i tell people when they say " i want to learn " Great video .😂
Awe my man!!! Happy Birthday and thank you sooo much for the kind words! ❤️
Jay son ve-Riccool you are So So Cool Jay you opened my eyes in 34 minutes and 40 seconds.I am a beginner harmonica player and a learning playing guitar as well and I have spent countless hours studying how to create a Lick and you could not have made any simpler in deed.Thanks a Million.
Thank YOU!!!
You are a certified genius J! New fishing lesson every week, and giving us permission not to try and master every single one! Okeley dokeley! Thank you sir! 👍🏼❤️🔥
I don't know if I've said it before or not, but thank you for these Free Friday videos!!!
There are 8.4k views here and just 585 likes. Please just like 👍 his videos even if you don’t watch it because of the incredible service he does for the community. He’s massively helped me on the Harmonica, and life lessons. 👍
Thank YOU!!!
Excellent advice. Today’s instant gratification society wants everything and they want it all now and I’ve been guilty of it myself. But in my older age I’ve learned that the secret to getting better is keeping it simple and that less is more. Taking a simple phrase and trying to see how many different ways I can play it has improved my playing 10 times more than trying to learn 100 new ones every time I turn around.
"...trying to learn 100 new ones every time I turn around." 🤣
Well said!
Your comment about 'less is more' reminded me, brother, of something I saw in AZ. From a a tombstone in Tombstone, AZ: "Here lies Les Moore. Shot dead with a 44. No Les No More".
😆
Massive video! There is so much here. Im playing 13 years now and I can tell this is so important. Multi practice is what this is. You are working with time, metronome, bending, 12 bar blues progression, swing and so much more. Jason You have been my teacher for all this years and I thank you so much. Love you bro.
In july you have a gig in Vienna and I will come to see you. Im from Croatia so it is very close. I want to meet my teacher finally. Love you papa. 😂❤
Awe thank you Sasa! Very cool! I have a gig in Sardias Italy in late July... is that too far?
Jason aren't you playing in Vienna Austria on fifth of july with JJ Appleton?
Well stated. This is the toughest thing thing about learning today, onliine, imho. I played many gigs before I'd even heard about most of this! Find or make some friends & get playing! Embrace the simple joys & pleasures of musical expression & let the rest unfold. It's so cool that you're sharing your wisdom, Jason.
Thank YOU!
You're absolutely amazing and a certified genius when in a rut get back to basic thank you young man once again🎵🎶🎼
Hey Jason, just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration. You really make the harmonica come alive and sound incredible. I am new and really struggling, but you give me hope !! LOL I need it. Thanks again and rock on, brother !
Thank ⚜️ You Scorpion!
love the editing love the energy love the music love the messege. Jason is a genius.
Too kind!!!
Around 25 mins in is AMAZING! 😂 the endless ways to practice that you find and demonstrate are very inspirational! Listen up ferrets!
My Bro Dan!
Fantastic as always. Thank you from England.
Happy Belated Birthday Mr. Mooncat.
I’m with ya! Will be 52 in June if I make it that long.
Let’s have another great day.
🙏
This time round it's more correct, Right on target, So direct(BD) this is an heroic effort to be completely honest and helpful
Dylan!
I've been doing nothing but bend practice for a couple weeks; finally 'get it' (pull through very back of constricted throat for me) but can't get the very bottom note on 2 or 3 draw. Good topic and vid! More singular practice....
I got a tip from a harp pro about how to get more control over all the bends available on the three draw is to touch the front teeth together to shrink the available space for the tongue to work in so you're making moves in smaller increments. I don't know if that will help you get to the bottom of the bends but it did help me get finer control. Good luck!

Awe!
Thank you so much for this Jason … I really appreciated this!!!
Great lesson Jason! Earned a new subscriber.
Thank you!
Wicked! I'm all over this, hope to make a video later 👍 1b -2 -3" never hso much fun with 3 notes
Read my comment above I wrote about this video.
By the way ...... This video is being played all the way through in the key of "E" not in the key of "A" if you want to play-along with Jason in this video. "GOT IT?"
Eli: "King of Rock & Roll Harmonica".
I suffer from paralysis through analysis - what a great expression!
Thanks for another cool lesson, J.
You are right Jason, just do it and I have realized you and anyone can sould great with using less notes,less is more means something!
I'm still trying to realize this 😆
@@jasonricci thank you! For your funny response always a pleasure to watch,learn and listen. We love cats too Moon 😺 keep it up!
Hey why so late? I’m awake and need my free Friday fix in order to get up!!! Me and the cats all waiting!!!! 6pm!!!! This better be good!!! 😂😂😂🛏️💤💤💤😪😾😾🙀😼
Sorry! Had a meeting I had to do first.
I got my mojo back. I stopped playing harps years ago. Now 7-8 guitars later, I’m happy to say, I’m a harp player again. The lessons are inspiring me.
❤️ 💙 💜
Yo. I forgot today was Friday. It's my day off and i thought it was Saturday. 😆 🤣 😂
Hey bro, hope you're doing well and life is treating you well. Love you bro. ✌️
I seriously need to watch this video every single day as a constant reminder
Awe ❤️ 💙 💜 Probably me too 😆
@@jasonricci 🤣🤣🤣
Don’t be too judgmental on yourself dude, they say you teach best what you need to learn yourself 👍🙏🏻
PHENOMENAL!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Good lesson. I can feel it!
Another golden lesson man.... Thank you very much Jason, very cool....
Great point! It is overwhelming. I’ve come to the same conclusion lately. I’ve been going back and focusing on things I haven’t nearly mastered before I went on to the next thing. Good to hear from someone with your experience and talent.
❤️ Thank you!
@@jasonricci You’re welcome! Thank you for all of the great content/lessons. I’m going to go see your old buddy Roguie on Monday at Browns Diner in Nashville.
14 minutes in, the root notes thing really pays off. I made a short video on it and a keyboard ninja wrote a comment saying I knew nothing about the blues and I speak complete rubbish. Even though I was shown it by Tomlin and yourself. The root note thing is a good foundation. It's always the ninjas with no content or anything to back up what their saying. Foundations rock. Happy five ohhh
Man those key board warriors! I get em too. They rarely almost never have any videos or even a real name. You doing GREAT!
Like most of my dreams, I just woke up one day wanting to do it. I just found your videos. Very excited to continue learning! Great teacher and player!
Thank you!!!
@@jasonricci "That was quick" ... what about the key your video is in? Got to know ... don't leave me in the rain Jason. Eli is my pen name , my name is John
Jason you're the best!!
Love ya brother !!!
Appreciate you ,!
Jason Howie here love the disabling one thing I learnt about technique is to not let the harp go down and collect spit I know you can do a lesson on how to hold it right air tight and whaling thanks for your kindness and support of others that can't afford stuff I have told player's of your website and pedals harps amps ❤😊
Think about it like this, for those 4 note arpeggios if you play each note 1 time there is 24 permutations to play them.
Now how many more when you repeat notes? This is great advice when learning anything.
Love the content brother
Perfect and precisely put ❤️
Brother man, this lesson has been soooooo much fun. I really get in to this one. It's helping a lot.
So happy my friend!!!
hey i just turned 53 on the 22nd- happy belated! that overwhelm montage was COMEDY GOLD!❤

MEOW !!?? I’ve tried to sing blues with la de da and failure! MEOW works! I’m just wondering if I’m not sad enough to hear blues in my life.
Happy birthday!
Great video Jason!

Ned has no cat. But Homer does. Meow. ❤
😆
You are the best. Stay straight my friend. I stopped drinking with your help .thanks Jason.

That's AMAZING!!! CONGRATULATIONS and thank you for sharing that!
Great job!...Well done. This song can be played in the keys of “E” on your Harmonica ... I will be making a cover of this song, But adding a little of my own twist to it ….soooo…Look for it!

NOW Subscribe and ding Jason"s bell............
PS: Hope YouTub doesn't take my comment down again to Jason.
You have fun!!! you're a free spirit
Jason reminds me of the marvellous much lamented buddy hackett in his mannerisms, no offence intended if your watching Jason only intended as a compliment, by the way nobody talks about Huey Lewis and his fabulous harmonica style, where he seems able to play both single notes and cords simultaneously almost a kind of rhythm like the trumpet, as I say in the tight harp community almost like an inclusive club only the chosen few can join like your not with the in crowd we don’t recognise him, sorry for the rant but I believe it’s true!.
Waiting😎
Coming out your way in November! Let's do Dinner!
Great tutorial! Your playing is outstanding. I'm curious about the technique you use for the chords interspersed with the single notes, particularly around the 5:38. Are you using the tongue blocking method, or do you use a lip purse technique and then expand your embouchure?
Thank you ❤️ and Yes that section there is all tongue blocked single hole and double hole splits.
Just a suggestion, don't know if you have made a free friday lesson about slow blues. And apply those concepts to an slow blues...
Ok!
Hi Jason, just subscribed to your channel, after seeing you competing with Will Wilde. You must be damn good to be competing with Will..... so I'll give you a shot😂
We're just playing.
@@jasonricci both brilliant 👍
Think I almost lost a lung 😂
One thing Jason doesn’t talk about as far as I know is the foot tap to the beat. I feel like the shuffle wouldn’t sound as good without it. I personally find the foot tap difficult to coordinate with my playing - maybe because I never really did it when I started learning music. Now I want to add it in. Just wondering how important and useful it is to tap a beat with your foot, and if there are any musical benefits to mastering it - or if it is something that gets in the way and is better to not do.
In my "Adam gussow vamp" video I talk about it!!!
@@jasonricci Thanks, I’ll search for that one ✪
Eeey this is what im doing!!
❤
Top 👍… Thx Jason..Big Hello from Croatia..Visit us sometimes
I've spent the last week practising the high-end of a f# harp and its tough.
Holy cats that is!!!
Any particular reason you don't go to the 5B instead of the 5D? Just curious. I don't understand theory, All due respect.
Sure ! The 5 draw is a different note with a different feel (we call it a b7 but thats not important) what is important is how it effects the chord. In this case it cause a little more tension that the 5 blow (we call that a 6th). So it's good to be able to do both by them selves before you put them together. BTW there is a video on 5b (5th chords) linked below here. ❤️
wtf is that giant harmonica lol
It's actually a case for Harmonicas!
Yay!!! Free Saturday. Worth waiting for. Finding these very reassuring. People think I can play now and that I’ve really got on with it. When the truth is I only know 2nd position and the lower end of the harp. I’ve never tried overblows or whatever and don’t want to try playing Juke 😂😂😂. I’m really happy to be taking it slow and focusing where I’m focused as in reality 99% of the stuff I like is 2nd position 1-6 hole. I will learn all the rest as I am obsessed with harp, but it can wait. Loads of guys I started out with wanted it all in 6 months and then quit!!!!! I will take the long path.
Hey my cats watched and loved the Meow Meow Meow Meow ! We do that!!! 😻.
