OK, one more harp piece and that's it. It's only 2:06. It's a jazzy blues played on a ten-hole. I used the tried and true JAZFRED RS.

Tunemonger,

Very cool, old times blues throwback. Like that piano in the background, panned left—nice touch. Sweet composition!

Cheers!

Oh, I love this bar. Always great music to lose myself in. Thanks for adding it, TuneMonger. Wait. It's over. Gotta push replay. No, hang on. They're playing The Whole Shebang now. I think I'll stay and order another drink.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Bob ...

You sure do know your way around the harmonica! I've always loved the harmonica playing Blues. You just gave me another real ghood reason to say that. That's one heckuva song! Totally enjoyed it - thanks for a sweet listen!

FWIW, perhaps a touch of reverb would be nice, too. Just a though t. Regardless, it's a great listen!!!

Best to you ...

Alan

Nice job working those notes - it's not what you play, but how you play it.

And you play it good! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Holy Crappola, that was awesome, Tunemonger.

Why in the world have I never tried to play the harp - it's such a wonderful emotional instrument..

You're a master at it !

Loved it!

Cheers,

Stefan

We have a friend that we have recorded with who is a great blues harp player.

We love many of the big time blues harp players.

All meaning we are familiar with the harp and that makes your performance
even more enjoyable and impressive to us.

Nice and emotive.

My thanks to all for the kind comments. Dave, I should have said that "I'm not going to do any more harp pieces FOR THE TIME BEING." I'll put some more up in a year or so. I have a new song I'll probably post in December. Thanks so much for listening, everyone.

Nice.
What's you signal chain for the little thing?
I've seen folk use all sorts of microphones...mainly fake old ones and a few different amps including a Pignose 100.

Hey Ray,

I use Amplitube amp simulator. I chose a tweed Fender Bassman amp and cab. Mic is an SM57, which is very popular for harp but not the preferred Green Bullet style with a vintage element (wish I had one of those).
