Steven Tyler was the person that inspired me as a child to start playing harmonica.
@SancheezieLoco2 жыл бұрын
Harmonica was the first instrument I ever started playing and it was because of Tyler. I learned by mimicking him and the songs. I'm not great by any means, but it's fun. Fun fact, I did catch Steven's harmonica at a show after he played it during "Cryin". Someone immediately asked me if they could smell it, so there's that. 🤣

This was different! Thanks! Check out Steven playing One Way Street (live in Japan), or Big Ten Inch, Stop Messing Around, and Fever. The thing about these 60s and 70s singers is they didn't want to be up there doing nothing but singing. So they picked up the harmonica.

I've been a big Aerosmith fan for many years - Tyler plays a pretty nice intro on Hangman Jury too, although not as technical (Even I can play it!!) - Thanks for this Tomlin - Looking forward to hearing you reacting to some other great tunes.

Lastly, would be a nice adjunct to this type of video if you add your playing tabs music for the examples played, discussed. Either as a download link or a part 2 video.

I think this is a great idea, because it really helps the learner understand how harmonica players can combine techniques to comp different styles of music. It also makes me want to emulate the techniques (couldn't help but get out my harmonica and try that 16th note phrase beginning with the 3-draw whole step bend).

Yes, please! This was great fun to listen to and to get your reaction. As you observed, lots of times a lead singer isn't doing anything very technical on the harmonica. Billy Joel's harp riff on "Piano Man" compliments the song beautifully but could be taught to a beginner in 15 minutes. I'd love to hear your reaction to Mickey Raphael's solo on "Georgia on my Mind" by Willie Nelson from his "Stardust" album. It's the reason I was driven to enroll in your school.

Tomlin. I enjoyed this video clip/analysis of Stephen Tyler. I like your observations, the major pentatonic right out of the gate, the 4 draw bend lick etc. The moment where Stephen seems to warble back and forth with his chromatica I believe but I think you can get the same effect on a simple 10 holed diatonic. I particularly like the point you mention about Stephen singing through the Harmonica. I would love to hear more. Ken

How about Ray Jackson’s harp on We Can Swing Together with Lindisfarne? Great playing there.

It's not so much the harmonica teacher reacts, but the harmonica teacher explains what is happening with the piece. I learned a lot just by having you explain.

Great format, taking a look at the harp in a "non-harp" song and a "non-harp" artist. There are a lot of pieces of harp in other genres of music and thus a lot of unknown harp "players" that are not covered in any discussion of harmonica. I would love to see a more detailed breakdown of exactly what the player is doing but the analysis of their skill level is great. Also, as a member of Tomlin's school...if you're not, then you should check into it.....has greatly accelerated my Harpin'!
