my dad plays in a band with howard. howard can play over a five octave range on a single harmonica using his own technique of overblowing reeds. AMAZING>
@DX7maniac No offence, but 10-hole diatonic harmonicas typically have 3 octaves only, overblow technique on the harmonica is not similar to other instruments, practically it only raises pitch up at most 2 or 3 semitones. Even Howard Levy would have to switch different key harps to play beyond that 3-octave range.
All of us Bela Fleck and the Flecktones fans miss your presence in the group. Your brillance on the harmonica and the piano is untouchable. Even with Jeff Coffin's wind instrument mastery, their will always be a void. Maybe in the future you'll come back and the Flecktones will be a quintet, still hoping for that day.
No...there's definitely three songs here, but the may just be different parts of the same song. I can't be totally sure since I don't know any of these songs.
Howard is truly inspiring. Totally original, I cannot think of anyone, anywhere, at any time that can compare with such a pioneer of the diatonic harp.
sin dudas, es el mejor...

Howard's amazing, but what I think is funny is that this clip starts out with a solo on sepent by Michel Godard, brilliant tuba player.

I think there are two songs. the first one I don't recognize but the second one is called Dog River and it comes from the album sultan's picnic

The first song seems like Solitude from Sultan's picnic, but a little bit diffrent. Kind of variation of that.
