@HarPlayer That man is quite a harmonica player himself. Thats Joe's classroom in Chicago. Joe usually plays drums for us while we do our licks. He is one of the best and a heck of a good guy to boot.

@bigdaddy3k i wish I could take lesson from him. it would be a blast .

[HarPlayer]

@bigdaddy3k @ 2: 04 on the chalk board what does that mean?

[bigdaddy3k]

@HarPlayer Joe has his own sheet music shorthand for us to use. The number is the hole on the harp, the arrow down or up means blow or draw, the symbols under the numbers will indicate various mouth effects (bend...). I need to get back over there, I have an open invitation but work keeps getting in the way!

I'm so jealous of all the guys that take lessons from Joe. But HIghway Rickey looks bored playing those drums! :)

[RonnieShellist]

Joe Filisko is the real deal!! Nice work!

[ZackPomerleau]

Any idea how much his classes are?

[sibersong]

Go to Old Town School of Music (Chicago). Many classes there at very reasonable prices with excellent instructors, like Flisko. 8 wks $145-$160.

Excellent! great to have Joe on amplified harp and separate vocal mike. Where is this shot? Love the decor? Joe's "classroom"?

[BigAlexB1Blues]

Yes it is held at b1...Joe's Classroom.

[Harpsucker]

i wonder what kind of amp he used

[fatdogamps]

Fat Dog Model 1A.

[Harpsucker]

are they available somewhere and how much, would be great in my series about Harmonica amps

[fatdogamps]

You can see all three models on the website.  fatdogamps . net

[BigAlexB1Blues]

Love the amp!!!

[BigAlexB1Blues]

I must get one....

[fatdogamps]

Thanks for your enthusiasm! I've just resized the cabinet on the Model 1A, so it's more compact, short and blocky. It looks like a perfect miniature of the 4x10 cabinet. Anyway, just shoot me an email and I'll get you fixed up with one.

Great clip! Joe is in his own style very unique. Do you know where to purchase his nice T-Shirt ?

I`m from germany, we don`t have such nice clothes....only Lagerfeld.. :-).

Joe has a great tone and he knows exactly to play the great masters. Thanks for posting.

A company called Gear I believe offers this nice Little Walter t-shirt. I think they are in Atlanta, and should have a web site. They have many other nice blues and jazz t-shirts. It may be Gear Ink, not sure.
