Nice break down of a classic. I started out like most as a lip purser but after TBing just about everything for the last few years alot of these classics are much easier for me. Love these classics man. Hey Rick watched your blues harp DVD not too long ago and really injoyed it (loved all the groupies in it)
That would have been so cool growing up there and hanging out with those guys. Damn Jerry I bet you got some great stories from those days. Wish I had started playing when I was young. My brother lives in Chicago it still has a great blues scene but not like it was back then I bet. Do you give skype lessons by any chance? I would love to sit down with you and really learn some things sometime.
Thanks for passing on your knowledge Jerry. I have been playing over a year now and thanks also to M. Rubin and R Shellist my current teachers. I have been listening to all the greats I try to spend at least an hour a day just listening to them play. And I also spend 2 to 3 hours every day just practicing. But you are so right you cant play what you cant hear. It must have been hard back in the day learning harp without the internet and from what I have heard none of the players really wanted to help either because they didnt want newbies to take thier gigs.
Been playing almost a year and still learning every day. I can bend really great but now my tongue always wants to bend even when I tell it not to so im having prblems with just getting a clean un bent note sometimes.
