Any tips for doing an offbeat quarter note? my foot stops tapping when i try that

[@davidevans8059]

Learning a lot, great lessons. Question how do you articulate on 3 half step bend. My tongue is already busy doing something?

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+David Evans hi David, try saying "kee" to articulate the 3 draw half step bend.

[@hellscream991]

Love you videos and Love to your watch collection as well. Pleased to see what you are a watch guy! What other watches do you have in your collection?

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Hi Zaki, I don't have a huge collection at the moment - couple of Seiko Divers. I just sold my favourite one like an idiot a Seiko Monster. If you see one at a reasonable price, give me a shout!

[@hellscream991]

Tomlin Leckie ill keep an eye 😉 My own collection consists mainly of Seikos- sarb033, alpinist and a diver- ssc017. They are truly great watches

[@BalangosoGames]

Muito bom! Like

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Thank you!!

[@neilhale8149]

love this post ! so enjoyable ,while informative/instructive.... Q........ may i ask what scale, shuffle 6 is ? The blues scale i'm learning ,leaves out the E , yet you have me playing it on Blow ,peg 2 ? I know I know so little and have to ask ? Great tutorial ,,, Salute ....

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Thank you! So I am mainly using blues scale but adding the blow from the major pentatonic scale :-)

[@neilhale8149]

ok.... thanks ,, didn't realise one could do that ,, but it works .... Thanks Tomlin.

[@MsKingoDisco]

Hey Tomlin, ive been watching your lessons and its quite helpful from beggining. I wanted to ask how can i jam with my friends with guitar and so. Nothing serious, just for fun. In Turkey we dont really listen blues -i do- so is it good to play popular songs with harmonica? Or should i go with this kinda licks and learn how to blues directly? Thanks so much for your afford btw

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+burak uçlu hi Burak, you can play other styles of music on the harmonica. You could use 1st position major scale over a lot of things.

[@narasimhiah]

thanka lot

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+Narasimhiah Nagaraj my pleasure :-)

[@sukomabawls]

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Thanks Charlie :-)

[@ravengangcharlie]

?

[@dhirajojha2853]

I have a chromatic harmonica...and I find it difficult to play draw notes...any help on that...👋

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+dhiraj ojha the main thing with draw notes is to make sure that you are not sucking. Instead you need to focus on breathing naturally with a relaxed tongue.

What do I need to get a t-shirt just like this ? Can you help me?

[@TomlinHarmonica]

[@stick-itproductions.3307]

How do you breathe that long?

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Lol, lots of practice. Here is a video that will help you with that - kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGHSpIh-ndyjrKc :-)

[@michaelalbro5920]

Lol, I'm thinking that I will never hear a shuffle again without thinking about Humpty Dumpty!

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Nothing wrong with that ;-)

[@referee2468]

[@sasikanth2619]

Helo hai I am a beginner just want learn from your videos so can you please suggest me which one to buy for beginners there are different key like c g f ....Etc Let me know please

[@walkabout29]

Your first harmonica should be a "C". Most instructional videos are for a C.

[@Zedoari]

I recommend Hohner Special 20, best value, perfect to start :) agree with the "C" suggestion!

[@CoolLava]

Try counting like this: 1 e & a 2 e & a 3 e & a 4 e & a repeat. Why count like this? Because each part has its own sound. The “&” is always an 1/8 note. “a” is always the little kick that makes swing or shuffle.

[@bfne00]

The score is a little off. Apart from that, amazing lesson!

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+bfne00 im sorry about that - can you show me where please :-)

[@henk1810]

Was this resolved ??

[@jnelson7360]

Rather than distorting the indicated rhythm pattern, why not simply indicate the pattern you demonstrate?

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Hiya, generally shuffle rhythms aren't notated any differently apart from an indication at the top that 1/8th notes are to be played with a shuffle rhythm.

[@chantalcalloway6603]

Woe has befallen the unrepentant sinners!!! We’re not exempt either, anyone who does not repent is at the risk of hellfire. REPENT and FOLLOW JESUS!!!! “Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.” -THE LORD ‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭18:30-32‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “and rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.” - THE LORD ‭‭Joel‬ ‭2:13‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “and saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” -JOHN THE BAPTIST ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭3:2‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” -JESUS CHRIST ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭4:17‬ ‭KJV‬‬
