Tommy - where did you learn to play like that! That has to be some of the best harp playing I've heard. Loved the track. Thanks.

I started playing harmonica in 1969 and had a roommate that had an huge collection of Blues records. Started playing Austin Blues clubs in 1971 and got the stage name Tom Terrific Tongue Man Hot Licks and Live Snake Show from a drummer who later played with Jimmy Buffet and George Strait. Played with a lot of famous musicians over the years, once when I opened up for John Mayall he refused to play harmonica after me. That made me sad cause I always loved his music. The band I played that show with (Bugs Henderson and the Shuffle Kings) called me up while I was playing another gig and wanted me to come for their show that was about to start. My band said go for it, and I drag raced to get there. I have always loved the Blues and where would it be without a harmonica. Thanks for listening ROG!

What a wealth of talent and experience there is on this forum!

I grew up in the 60s listening to Mayall, first with Clapton and then with Peter Green. I remember Mayall having a belt with all his harmonicas hanging off it. I always admired his playing, but if I was starting blues band, it's your door I'd be knocking on.

Classic stuff, Tommy. Thanks.

ROG.

Thanks Yall! I loves me some Biab-uh-fication! Thanks for Listening!

I thought I had already commented on this song, but apparently not..

I bow to you Tommy! This is such a tastefully assembled backing to your magnificent harp honking. I don't know how you coax a marine band to find all of those notes, but man, you do it so well!

I agree with Rog... if I was putting together a blues band from the forum participants, you would certainly be on my list!

Thanks for sharing your talent and musical vision with us.

Well Thank You so much Pat, I'm afraid my breathing disorder severely limits my Harmonica playing these days. I have to get it one take or wait a day while I recover from coughing all the 47 years of smoking cigarettes out to try another take.

Wonderful use of BIAB.

Dude that is some tasty blowin'!!!
Posted By: Tommyc Re: Head Room - 07/06/12 11:56 PM
Thanks Guys for Listening, it wouldn't have been good without my Incredible Band!

Hi Tommy,

I nearly missed this one. Wow! This is so-o-o-o-o-o good! There is nothing about this presentation that sounds BIAB/RB to me at all. As I sat here with my eyes closed just listening, it felt like I was in a club. I could see everything happening in front of me.

Seems like we all agree, you are one heck of a talented man

All the best,
Noel

Thanks Paul! I'm a fan of your songs too!

Tommy,

Great sound!! Really sounds professional and well produced. It keeps your interest by switching solo instruments in just the right places. A very impressive recording. This could definaely go on a Music Compilation CD.
Posted By: Tommyc Re: Head Room - 07/14/12 05:13 PM
Well Thank You so Much! I sure love to record using Biab, greatest software in the world!
Posted By: Buford Re: Head Room - 07/14/12 07:46 PM
@Tommy...I don't have a font big enough to write the "WOW!" I'm feeling after hearing you play. Extraordinary to say the least. Can't wait to hear more.

Bob

Thanks Guys, I'm having a wonderful time playing music with the Greatest software ever made! Thanks really should go to PG though for making the Band play like that. It would have cost a small fortune to hire musicians of that caliber! Thanks Peter!

I should have replied to Yall long ago, this must have been while(I think) I was in the hospital or moving. Thank You so much for listening!
