Hi. I frst started out listening to Sonny Terry and McGhee.. spent years trying to get his sound.. gave up eventually and started listening to Paul Butterfield.
This kind of harping should be part of every player, but sadly (almost) every one wants to ba a Little Walter clone. Looking forward to going through your videos and learning all i can. thanks.
Thanks Ben you are one of the best in letting us know in laymans terms how it works - demystifying the the gods so to speak - thanks I have been working on this to play something with my pal Mazblues. Take care and keep it coming man! You guys are great! I Got my second little girl going now on the harp. I hope some day to have a girly band - I have 4 of them. I have no chance dude.
@Wharty Nice comments - that's what keeps me doing it, I'm very proud to be a full time harmonica teacher! We have a couple of new Sonny Terry books coming out in the next few weeks so watch this space! Ben
