Still loving Fred Yonnet after seeing you all those years ago in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Now when I'm hosting a show, I use your CD as transition music. You're still doing the dang thang and it still sounds great!

@fredyonnet I meant no disrespect towards your immensely talented musicians. Just thought it sounded funny. You guys all killed it. Truly phenomenal playing all around. Hits me right in the spot. I recently had the pleasure of meeting your guitar player Errol at a private party. If you run into him in the future, tell him the 'Giant Steps guy from New Bedford' says hi! Also, If you ever need a bass player, look me up! You are an inspiration man.
whats are your favorites harps, in order. for your comments i suppouse the seydels favorites. what do you think about the 1847`s? and what about the hohners.
I saw Frederic Yonnet absolutely kill at Prince's Nokia show. Two songs in particular sounded so much better with harmonica. I never tried out the instrument myself (although I can get by on a diatonic on simple songs) but I am seriously thinking about giving it a try.
@jfgoldstein If you are at all in the least still interested.... 2 years later...lol. I'm pretty sure it's an A flat harp. that's what key Stevie Wonder used for the original.
When he played Little Wing for Dave Chappelle i got the most intense wave of chills down my spine since i first heard the blues. Yonnet is an amazing harp player.
he's a very nice guy too. He played at 21st Amendment in DC and I saw him up close...kinda tall too...lol. But he's a very humble musician...a trait not many of them possess these days.
Stevie Wonder had three surprise guests show up on stage with him during his Madison Square Garden show two nights ago (Nov 17 2007) ... Frederic Yonnet may have been the least famous (the other two were Prince and Tony Bennett), but Yonnet was the one who totally blew me away! He and Stevie played dueling harps on "Boogie On Reggae Woman"---it was amazing!!
As an aspiring future wannabe professional blues harp player myself (once my kids get older), I find Frederic Yonnet inspiring ... but also depressing---because if that's the competition, I guess I'll just stay an amateur!
AMAZING. Got my tix to see you at the Blues Alley next week!

@neomodernbill we didn't have a bass player for that show. Therefor, Moe Daniels had to split his keyboard to play the bass with the left hand.
I think he killed it!

Hi cbmuzik
I only just found out about this gentleman. It's nice to read that he's humble and you're right, it is kind of rare!
I read about him on another page where the correspondent is arguing the pointlessness of saying such and such a player is 'better' than another.
Best wishes from the U.K.
