Anyone On here play the Harmonica?

[jack walsh13]

Just added another instrument to my collection. Brought a Chromatic Harmonica. The Cromatic Harmoninca is the one ith the silde button on the side. Has all the notes in the scale so I don't have to buy a bunch of Harmoninca's in diffefent keys. Playing single notes is the first thing you have to get down. It's a lot harder than I though. But with hard work and constant practice I will be able to create my own sound with this instrument. Saxophone is also next for me. I'm serious about creating my own sound and becoming a sucessful producer/sonwriter studio muscian.

Man I never knew they were that big. It's heavy, but you don't get tired holding it though. Shit is loud as fuck too. In smaller venues you won't have to mic it.

I have a Hohner Special 20 Marine Band in the key of C, but I rarely play it so you could say I am a beginner (although, I have had it for years). Nevertheless, I have a few songs that feature a harmonica that you might enjoy playing along with:

War - Cisco Kid



War - Galaxy



J. Geils Band - Flamethrower



INXS - Suicide Blonde

Wow that thing cost $531.63 .

I guess you ain't fucking around.

No harmonicas for me. No interest.

 

[Rythm]

Haven't had one in years, might dive back in and really learn it this time..

 

[Coldchi]

Not really interested in it.
I'd pick up a violin before i try to play that shit.

I always thought it was cool thing to play but since I turned into a professional kazoo and whistle blower I haven't been interested in a harmonica.

I've been professionally blowing since I was 3yrs old....a child prodigy

I think if you spend a little time practicing each day you would improve.

My problem is that I will try to play for a few minutes one day and then put the harmonic down and not play for weeks.

Good video about playing single notes on the Chromatic Harmonica

At one time playing the harmonica and bongos got you a lot of pussy, this is before hobos and hippies fucked things up for folks.

I always wanted to play harmonica, I guess because I came up in the Stevie Wonder era.
I also was a big fan of WAR back in the day. I went to a WAR concert in Columbus GA when they were at their peak,
and Lee Oskar was showing out. One of the greatest concerts ever.

Good Times Mayne
