  • I've never seen one harmonica playing musician on the streets here in Australia. Not one. If you had been playing in the streets, I would've stopped and commended you on how absolutely great you sound.

    Fucking. Awesome.

  • Thank you!

  • Most time when i am out on the streets i wear headphones but if i see a street musican i put them down to show my respect for the art an to hear what they do ,... ohh man you fucking rock ,... i cant tell it with words,...

    ps: sorry for my bad english ,...

  • Thanks for your comments! I didn´t expect people to like this distorted rock/blues soundbut it was fun to try.

  • My question is: Cant the people hear the music?

    So what i mean is , this is not a Video where you laid the music under it after recording?

    I would never be able to go ahead when someone plays soo nice funky music in the streets or subway,... i dont understand this,... they all go like there is nothing,...

  • Of course they can hear the music, it´s recorded live. I was a tourist and this is in the middle of the week so they were going home from work. You know, it´s another tempo in the weekends.

  • This is great!! I've heard another blues harmonica artist on the underground. Leicester square just before christmas, it was awesome!

    Hi Marco,

    Thanks for your comments!

    The distortion is directly from the amp that is described in the text box to the video.

    Hakan

  • I would've had to stop to sing.

    Barks out, ♪Life's down the tube, gonna catch that crowded train. Goin' home again.♪

  • Hakan has that kind of rock attitude to blues that nobody else in the net. People play either blues or rock. Hakan plays heavy, hard, bluesy and rocky. Bravo maestro.

  • Dude, you really got cool ideas about playing locations !!!

    I'm really like it
