Hi, I'm from chile so excuse my English ... I'm learning to play harmonica and I really liked your video, I would like to know what scales you do at first, I have a harmonica in C and I would like to learn to play like you, greetings from South America
I watched this video a few weeks ago and after ther first time I watched it and went out and bought a blues harp. In my eyes you are better that pat. Please keep the videos coming. Im going to keep playing and I will post you a vid of me playing some of the riffs you are playing.
due to watching you on youtube I started learning harp about 6 months ago and I'm loving it, can't thank you enough for the lessons, they're priceless. cheers
Jason, when you talk about playing triplets, you said you were playing 2 draw, 2 draw bend (full step) followed by 1 draw. It sounds to me as if you're playing 2 draw, 2 blow, 1 draw. is this true? if not, are you actually bending the 2 draw down further that a whole step? It might just be what i'm hearing as well. thanks for the video
you fucking kick ass bro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm a 35 year guitar player so I'm very discerning but your musicianship is stellar. And you have the one thing that can't be taught, SOUL!
Brilliant. That was a fine example of not just how to play and teach harmonica well but how not to come off as a show off wanker. I got a great deal out of this one short video. Love to see you play live. Come and do a tour downunder soon please. Thanks, John Knowles, Sydney
nice man, hey, what key and type is that, and what would you recommend for me??? only been playing for a couple of weeks and bought a lee oskar 10 hole, c, diatonic, and I am having a bit of trouble playing, I can play short riffs and that but when it comes to fast or fastish playing with words I fall to peices, will keep watching these to see if they help
I love you songs! I love the way you play! I've always thought that we had to choose between speed or tone. I have a nice tone, but I play too slow. You have both attributes! It's amazing! I have the same opinion. I dont like the players that play fast but not bluesy. Do you have these phrases/scales written? Can you send it to me? It's amazing!
He makes it sound simple because it is so natural to him, but the thought put into the phrasing is depp, and this guy is a serious harp player by any standards. I am a guitarist with a degree in jazz composition, but am trying to delve more deeply into blues, and I just got schooled on putting phrases together. Great job!
hi, I have a M.Hohner Marine Band 365 C but i cant get this sound.i play it ameturly but i think i cant bend. how can we get this sound ? or my harmonica is different from yours ? thanks
@WeedsOwnTanDitchAnts that's funny, as long as someone has a harmonica in their mouth they look like a harmonica player to me. Heck, I have a friend that looks like your standard issue jarhead marine that plays beatbox flute and he's damn good at it. Looks don't matter, having music in your heart is all that does.
hi jason, i respect you as a player. thanks for your videos. I am constantly learning and you have helped me even know you are much younger LOL. Thanks Craig
blind owl's harp in anything he did or johnny winter's rhythm, maybe in 'be careful of a fool', can share the soul of the blues with any musician in building depth in shredding that harp
you're very, very good and have the talent to be great
hey I'm gunna buy a harmonica, what key should i buy it in and what make should i buy to start off with? i really don't know much about them..... thanks.
@mariosalmeron a golden melody key of g or c. and jason recommend to me a a suzuki fire breath and i tried it out and thats all i play. but that suzukis price is kinda expensive.
I always learn something from a Jason Ricci YouTube video......without even trying.....I like the triplet practice idea. That is on my practice list for this week.
@lildude1122 I think he meant that he can play faster than lota ppl think he can :)) (those that probably ask him "how come you can play so fast?") :D
incredible man, I played in bands year ago and lost the love for a while, than I picked up my daughters toy harmonica and was hooked, now I have bought a cheap sousa band and cant stop playing although I havent got a clue what I am doing. If I become half as good palying those notes slow I will be happy, the blues is what life is all about and I am making music again after a sort, love your playing and it has made me want to play more..............
Hola soy Cardo. Thanks for playing blues, you're the best for me, you're a great blues harp in live concerts (lots of soul ... or a soul sold? jajajajajajaja
joking). I leave a bad record I hope you listen. I hope you make a comment. Thank you very much jason ricci.
he's like: Jason Ricci and New Blood ;)check his website..if you look up at the top right..under 'more info' click on it, it will give you all the information you need to know.
I wish more people realized that's all they have to do to answer most or all of the questions they ask in the comments section...
But guys, it isn´t the harmonica, it´s the guy playing it! I think I´d heard Jason in The Roadhouse (the finest blues you´ve never heard!)
Now, that harmonica sounds very good, usually you may feel some air leaking out somewhere, but I don´t think in this one.
The important thing from this video is that playing fast isn´t just playing fast, notes have been organized in a way that you do know what you´re doing, rather than choosing the next note right before playing it.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Hey, You know what really sux? not knowing if your good or not. im pretty sure wen i play it sounds like a dying cat. but you know wat? fuck the rest, i play for the best.
thats amazzing! do you have calluses on your lips? my lips are really sore after i play harmonica hard for 20 min or so... did that happen to you as well?
could you please tell me what harmonica it is you are using as ilike the sound of this type and i am starting off and wanna learn on that one your playing.
i think all the harps he plays are customized. If your just starting out, most people will recommend a Hohner Special 20. Or a lower-price-range Hohner. The Blues Bender might be a good first one, but I haven't played it.
you almost make me want to stop trying to play this damn thing cause your too damn good! lol. seriously though I feel like I'm going no-where or should have started off with personal lessons instead of trying it myself. Any suggestions?
harmonica has always been really tough for me to pick up. I'm naturally good at playing guitar and piano and even drums, but for some reason the harmonica is so foreign to me.
Do you use you tongue on the holes to control which ones get air going through them?
u make ur mouth reaaly small so only air goes into the holes u wanna play.... u can control the holes with you're tongue, but thats an advanced stkill....
please acid head keep negative comments like that to yourself. Every person watching jason admires what he is giving away with his postings.... please take your negativity somewhere else. thanks
wow i hav no idea how the hell i came upon this vid but wutevr lol.
i have a question and plz do not take any offense by this. are you gay? its just kinda the impression i got. and i rlly mean no offense by it just wondering lolz
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
dude wth i really dont mean any offense im just curious and even though its kinda steriotypical its basically the same appearence a gay guy would have around where i live. and ik noone cares i just wnna know if i rght or not lol
haha yea ikand idk why it wuz just a random quesion geesh lol and he is pretty good ig idk tho cuz i dont really know anythig bout tht sorta stuffs :P
""ur reading this u cant go back there was a dad who got pissed cuz he got layed off so he went home took a knife than went to his 13 year old daughter and slit her neck! if u r reading this and dont forward to 10 vids the 13 year old girl be sitting on the endge of the bed waiting for tha when u wake up who ever takes care of u will find u in the tube full of bloode with ur throat slit and than the 13 year old girl will come to who ever takes care of u so hury dont be the" less"""
2nd: Is there any way you can do these tube lessons with a more common harp? I know Eb isn't *that* uncommon, and I sort of feel like I'm nitpicking, but it does make it easier to follow along if you use a more common major key.
10 facts 1.Your reading my comment 2. Now your saying/thinking thats a stupid fact. 4. You didnt notice that i skipped 3. 5. Your checking it now. 6. Your smiling. 7. Your still reading my comment. 8. You know all you have read is true. 10. You didnt notice that i skipped 9. 11. Your checking it now. 12. You didnt notice there are only 10 facts Copy and paste to 1 video, tomorrow will be your best day ever! no matter what
What type/ make/ model harmonica are you using? Your right hand/ thumb frequently moves to a chromatic harmonica position - can you demo this type as well?
Hey. Sorry for my bad english. I have a marine band in key of c. Its wood is starting to swell from spit . I mean the wood parts that makes the holes started to sweelll and can be visible when looking my harp diretctly downwards or upwards. They swelled out about 2 3 mm. They hurts my lips. Is there something that i can do. Can they recover and go back where they used to be ^^ :(
im not very experienced yet so it's just a tip buy a harmonica with a plastic comb the plastic wont take your spit, they sound different though i prefer my Hohner special 20 :)
hey jason thats all good man,,,but can you play fast,,,hehehehehehe foookin awsome mate,,would love to hear you n dan gage jam together man,, ace from the uk
Pat and I sat in KClinger's one night telling stories, I remember him talking about meeting you for the first time and something about a VW bus if memory serves. He was definitely proud of his relationship with you and your success. Great guy, glad I got to see him play a couple times and hang out with him for a bit!
Hi Jason I am an argentinean harp player, and I dont have words to describe your talent!!, now a day I just play harmonica to myself, I work every day very hard (now I´m living in Brazil with my family) I don´t have enough time to practice with harmonica, but really I would like to know if you could to play that thing a little more slow...I would like to learn theses tips always that you can do it. thanks a lot!!
NOT an embarsing question! A ver reasonable one and one I should have started this video by explaining. A pentatonic scale is a 5 note combination of note consisting of the 1,flat 3rd, 4, 5, and flat seven... OR... In harp terminology: The 2 draw, 3 draw bent a half step (One small bend) the 4 blow, 4 draw, 5 draw the the 6 blow or octave thats in cross harp it can be played in any position. Great question!

after using pan knife they would have a surface without wood finish. So these faces can absorb more saliva ? can swell more. Will be more ruined?

1st: Thanks for doing this!
2nd: Is there any way you can do these tube lessons with a more common harp? I know Eb isn't *that* uncommon, and I sort of feel like I'm nitpicking, but it does make it easier to follow along if you use a more common major key.
and thanks again for doing these!

What type/ make/ model harmonica are you using? Your right hand/ thumb frequently moves to a chromatic harmonica position - can you demo this type as well?

I mean the wood parts that makes the holes started to sweelll and can be visible when looking my harp diretctly downwards or upwards. They swelled out about 2 3 mm. They hurts my lips.

Pat and I sat in KClinger's one night telling stories, I remember him talking about meeting you for the first time and something about a VW bus if memory serves. He was definitely proud of his relationship with you and your success. Great guy, glad I got to see him play a couple times and hang out with him for a bit!

kinda a embarising question but what do you man by "pentatonic scale"?
fudman02 2 years ago 2
NOT an embarsing question! A ver reasonable one and one I should have started this video by explaining. A pentatonic scale is a 5 note combination of note consisting of the 1,flat 3rd, 4, 5, and flat seven... OR... In harp terminology: The 2 draw, 3 draw bent a half step (One small bend) the 4 blow, 4 draw, 5 draw the the 6 blow or octave thats in cross harp it can be played in any position. Great question!
