@@darrell6800 You guys are way tooo funny!

[@TheRealCreepinogie]

Is the song done by the other instruments in E as well?

[@stonedguitar1675]

Thank you very much Tad.. I was trying with an A harmonica but it lacked somthing!! Your tutorial is very helpful ! However I wonder if I'll manage to cover this song!! Simply doing a backing track is a huge work!! Hi from France! Thomas

[@BILL13661]

Thanks for this lesson!!! Very good!

[@craigmccann1028]

I liked this demo....

[@daleboy3783]

So helpful! Thank you

[@freddy3190]

excellent Thanks

[@johnofone]

WOW! Excellent!! Thanks for sharing!!! :)

[@evanwilliams4302]

Great breakdown. Thanks! But Jagger’s hitting some seriously dirty, leaky notes to get that dark tone. Any advice on that?

[@kilgoretrout6136]

Yeah , cause he's not that good at the harp....jagger is ok on the harp at best. And I'm a huge fan.

[@420Mylo]

GREAT! Shot for the lesson man

[@estheralvarez5399]

Thank you so much :)

[@craigmccann1028]

Could you demonstrate "can you hear me knocking". Or point to the vid post I missed???

[@frankmcnally7444]

Any chance of getting the tabs?

[@user-rc8eq9jq4f]

l love that lesson what kind of harmonica is that and what the key?

[@AugustMedia]

Tad, love it by why not the popular 69 live version from ‘get yer ya yas out’?

[@taddreis]

So many versions, so little time! I'll bet the licks are similar. Maybe learn them from the lesson here, and see if you can spot them in the live '69 version.

[@AugustMedia]

@@taddreis Good point! Thanks.

[@stonedguitar1675]

I've just uploaded a cover of this song ! It's not perfect but the E Lee Oskar sounds well (I think!). Thank you again for this lesson! Thomas

[@fenderbender9589]

Is it a blow or draw bend?

[@alexbowman7582]

It’s in B.

[@Avalaxy]

Bah doing the bends with hole 4/5/6 is easy for me, but I just cant get it working on hole 1 or 2 :/

[@ianritchie5111]

brilliant Tad....any chance of a CANNED HEAT tutorial?

[@taddreis]

Thanks, Ian. Jason Ricci already posted a really nice video appreciation of Alan Wilson. I don't recall if he gets into teaching the licks in detail, but I'll think about it and if it seems like there's a gap in there for me, I may take you up on that suggestion.

[@lamper2]

What key is this song in and what position are you playing in?

[@ownage3523]

For the bend are you using more of a tongue black bend or tightening of the lips?

[@taddreis]

Hi Justin, to bend, I'm not tongue blocking or tightening my lips. Tongue blocking refers to using the tongue to isolate a single hole. I'm using my lips to isolate a single note (pucker technique) and then bending by adjusting the position of my tongue inside my mouth. The tongue arches up in the middle, restricting airflow slightly, and then maintains that height while moving a little bit toward the back of my throat to drop the pitch. There's a whole video on bending notes available at www.wildflowerharmonica.com/store

[@taddreis]

To further clarify, tightening the lips does not affect bend pitch. You simply have to maintain a clear single note (regardless of tongue block or pucker), then adjust tongue position internally.

[@ownage3523]

Tad Dreis When I try that with my tongue, my notes remains unbent and unaffected. I can get the right note though if I use my bottom lip to tighten up the whole a little, if you know what I'm saying?

[@clownpocket]

I used to play it on a C harp. Maybe I had to bend notes, seems like it worked, but clearly is wrong. Have to try E harp.

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

Yeah you get to e harp going to have it right on spot

[@peopleperson]

Guys, Robert's gonna be a Zit!

[@estheralvarez5399]

Question , the E Harmonica is the same for the live version ?

[@taddreis]

Hi Esther - in the two live versions I've listened to on KZbin, both have been an E harmonica. You never know, in another version maybe they'll tune down lower, to give Mick's voice a break. In that case, you'd need an Eb harp. But from what I've heard so far, only E harmonicas.

[@desalvo66]

u remind me of andy kaufmann..

[@estoymas9622]

can i play whit type C ?

[@taddreis]

You can, it will sound fine by itself. But it won't sound correct with the recording.

I was thinking john Cusack :- ) !

[@ted6176]

Emma you're right. Next movie about the Beatles, they got their John. He'll play LOVE ME DO with his own harmonica.

[@phayzyre1052]

Good lesson! The ones who dislike this can go to hell.

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

I'm surprised how much of a difficulty this is causing me because I have Mick Jagger Steven Tyler sized lips LOL.. and Mick did play this too. it wasn't a session musician so why in God's name I cannot get the isolated holes is beyond me...🙃😓😂🤣

[@taddreis]

I’ve got a whole lesson on single notes, actually - www.wildflowerharmonica.com/how-to-play-single-notes/

All these years I've been playing this on a G Harp. I think. 🤔 thought ?
