  • Congratulations for all your uploads, Im learning chromatic and i would like play like you any time.

  • No I am not full of shit you can't play the harmonica if you could you would improvise a bit and get a decent vibrato and if you where to take the trouble and listern to some of the wonderfull players on youtube you would realise how basic you are

  • @themaximsfamily Yes you are, you're old as fuck and you're telling me I am the most basic harmonica player you have ever heard in your long life? Come on! I know I'm basic, I don't deny it, but when you say I'm the most basic you've ever heard, you're full of shit, end of story.

  • this bloke is the most basic harmonica player I have ever heard he has no feel never improvise and his hand vibrato is bloody awfull how dose he get so many hits the mind boggles Johnny maxim

  • @themaximsfamily Haha, most basic you've ever heard, you're full of shit, admit it :-)

  • Good job...Here is an idea. Try this on a diatonic country tuned harmonica. Cross it into 2nd position. You will be able to put much more expression and feeling into it. It will require some choking..but it's not that hard to do. You will play it that way from now on... also drop the Minnie Pearl hat tag. That indicates a lack of confidence. You don't need that!

  • @4664sharon hi, thank you for the sugggestion but i hardly ever play my diatonic. But could be a training yes.

  • Like the hat.

    And the glasses there Minne Pearl

    :)

    Nice playing BTW

  • Hi, I"m from India and have got a Chrometta 10.I like playing along with you.Not many people here play the harmonica so I have to depend on yuotube for tips.Thanks and hope you keep uploading some more.

  • nice playing, but

    stupid hat (sorry, but thats the way it is...)

  • GREAT playing...oh, and nice commie cap.

  • Precioso tema y linda interpretacion.

  • Hi, nice video, love the song:)

    where do you get your notes? do you make them by listening to songs?

  • Hello, no I get them from a music notation software called BAND IN A BOX.

  • Dude! You are an amazing Harmonica player!!!! Made me really envious. Made me miss my harmonica now. I also like how you change your hat every song you play :-)

  • Can you give me the notes for this song?

  • Hi. I have the same harmonica, and I don't really know how to play it. I know that 1 hole can make 4 different sounds with the thing that you can push at the right.

  • dont wear the tag on ur glasses ever again

  • Hi what model, how many holes, and how much does one about cost and where can I Get one x] sorry I'm a harmonica newb.

  • Hohner Chrometta 14 in C, costs about 100$ in developped countries. I'm sure you can get it online in the US, just spend some time to find a well known online shop so you won't have bad experience with your order.

  • Just a friendly hint: Add more expression to your playing, show that you feel the music (if you feel it) - you almost don't variate the volume at all, it's like a flat line ________

    Enjoy it

  • Thank you for the hint. On a lot of my videos the emotion/feeling part is a problem. I'm mostly trying to play all the right notes, with not much put into the other most important aspects of the music.

  • It's great! Why don't you record it with a proffesionell Microfon? It will be much better.

  • Hi, I'd need to buy a microphone. I recently bought another harmonica (hohner CX12 jazz) and will record a video with it soon. I don't have the microphone but yes you're right the sound would be much much better than how I'm doing it right now.

  • bit sharp... how did you record it? i'm shure it had a much fuller sound when you played it

  • Background music played on my computer speakers, big room, sound recorded on the camcorder microphone, so not the best sound ever :-)

  • Really beautiful. I will listen to it again and again

  • nice!

  • Great

  • Excellent!

  • in response to Fersommling's comment...i happen to think the Red Star is quite becoming, and possibly a new look in the world of harmonica fashion. regarding the shades, though...Minnie Pearl did it first. great tune. keep 'em comin'.

  • Beautiful, I've listened to about 20 versions now and yours is about the best. You captured the feel of the song perfect.

  • but what kind of harmonica is it??

  • a chromatic harmonica.

  • The music I like. The communist hat, I don't. Lose it.

  • Be tolerant! Communist is great for those who love communism, and not so great for those who don't. Of course everything would be better if the world belonged to you, but it doesn't.

  • Thank u boy!! you've helped me so much!! and what's the best way to clean it? many people say that they sink it in whisky... is it right?

  • Wow! thank u so much!! The Hohner Chrometta is beautiful too.. but what is "voices"? i heard there are some types of Chrometta's: 32 voices (45€), 40 voices(54€), 48 voices (62€), 56 voices (70€)...

    The key... when you buy one, you must say in which key you want it? can you alter the key after you've bought it?? what do u think it's the best?? look at this: rastromusical . com thenk u so much!!!!

  • I don't know about voice, it's surely the number of different notes you can play with a harmonica. Just ask for the chrometta 14 that's the name of the model and has 14 holes, so it's 3 and a half octaves. If you don't care about the money take the 14. Otherwise I wouldn't recommend to buy less than 12 holes. The most common key is C but for chrometta you could find in G. It doesn't really matter since it's a chromatic, but still take in C.

  • look on amazon(.)com for "Harmonica Chrometta 14" then click on buy new, you can find it at 77$ plus shipping it's still less than the thiefs in europe. I bought 2 hohner chrometta in china, the exact same for about 25$ each, that's the price it should be!

  • Hi! i love your performance boy!!! you play it great!!!! you're wonderful.

    i'd like to buy my first harmonica and i like the sound of yours. is it a Hohner? Could you tell me the model of the harmonica?? thank u!!!

    and congratulations from Spain!!!

  • Hello, read my profile page there's more info in it. Yes it's a hohner, model chrometta 14 in key of C. I recommend it I find it easy to play, big holes.

  • nice sunglasses ^^

  • Thanks, they're special Beijing 2008 edition.

  • WOW,,,,

    I LIKE THE MELODY!

  • Very nice!

    Jam On!

    -BB

  • Where do you get your background music in the key of C

  • From the internet, I search for a midi file, then you take any midi software and you can transpose the song easily. Look at my profile for software recommendations.

  • Wonderful! Truly wonderful...and you know the rest. Thank you so very much!

  • That was a really calm feeling melody.

  • very nice, as usual :) thank you!

  • Haha! nice rendition!

    lol, je suppose que t'es un 'fan de MaryAnne' à cause l'étiquette sur les carreaux, sinon quelle coincidence rigolote!

  • Je ne connais pas MaryAnne sans chercher sur Google. Oui j'ai laissé l'étiquette car j'ai acheté 3 paires de lunettes dans la rue en Chine c'est pas cher hahaha dont une ADIDAS, celle que je porte c'est les spécials BEIJING 2008 :-)

  • Attend, tu vas pas me dire que tu ne connais pas MaryAnne ?? mon vieux, j'ai le plaisir de t'annoncer que tu l'as dans tes favoris et souscriptions (ysabellabrave) hahaha je rigole beaucoup là! :D

  • ah ouais ysabellabrave je suis allé voir son site aussi, mais j'avais pas en tête qu'elle s'appelait MaryAnne!

  • et maintenant que je sais de qui tu parles je ne vois pas le rapport entre l'étiquette sur les lunettes et isabellabrave.

  • Simplement parce que dans une de ses videos de bavardages et de morale destinés aux jeunes gens pas débourrés, elle fait allusion aux gars qui draguent en lunettes noires mais qui oublient d'enlever l'étiquette... ;D c'était juste pour ça..;) en tout cas, joli ton MoonRiver!

  • Ah ok, j'avais écouté une fois quand elle parle mais ça me met mal à l'aise, d'une certaine façon, je préfère quand elle chante.

  • Et en plus, je te colle 5 étoiles x 2fois !

    Sympa le mec, hein? :D

    aller, bonne continuation!

  • heureusement que tu es là :-)

  • Note that there's a small delay between the video and audio, but not enough to waste time thinking about why it's happening now when it has always worked fine before..
