Yeah, I’d check out Cotton behind Muddy, behind Spann, behind Johnny Young - In a simpler way than LW, he was always able to add cool sounding stuff that wasn’t obtrusive, yet...

Thanks. I guess listen, as always, is the first principal, err on the side of playing less. There's plenty to work on as a singer and soloist.  And lots to do besides playing a...

Good question. To me, Little Walter was the ultimate as an accompanist, in addition to being the greatest soloist in harmonica history. The setting he was normally working in...

Hi Rick, I was wondering if you could advise me on improving my accompaniment playing.  I'm the singer in our group so I don't have to worry about stepping on my own voice.  I'm...

Chris, Despite how stiff my technique looks I've been working towards loosening things up. I'm getting similar feedback from MD and others with which I've worked. As for your...

Awesome, thanks Chris! I looked into the Grace Felix. Between that and the Neumann you use for the gigs with Julian you clearly go for nothin' but the top of the line! I have a K&K...

I agree with Robert! I don't know how you measure demand but I hope you'll do more with the chromatic. There's tons of great material on the site for diatonic so it would be great...

Thanks for the great chromatic primer, Dennis - looking forward to more in the future (octaves, major key, etc)!

Hey Dennis, In one of the posts before this series actually started you posted a cut from a George Harmonica Smith record, "Harmonica Ace".  I got the CD this week and was...

Hi, Dennis Gruenling here to work through the final two sections of “Moan-A-Chrome”. This is the home stretch, and I’m sure by now you are getting the hang of these patterns and...

Hello Friends, This week we are starting with some of the chord fragment riffing parts and working our way through most of them. These riffs are cool and quite easy and give the...

In this lesson, we examine effective ways to sing the song and how to approach singing. Remember that being faithful to the vocal line and being disciplined about when you do and...
Rick Bill blatner left a comment on: Moan A Chrome Sixth Chorus Breakdown
Dennis, Another question. Are there other positions used on the chromatic commonly to play blue's? Any good examples you can think of to listen to? Thanks. I'm getting a lot out...

Dennis, A bit of a scoop up on the 6-draw?

Thanks James! The pickup is a LR Baggs Lyric and I'm blending it with a Joe Mills mic via a Grace Felix preamp. The Grace is really great and aside from the guitar maybe the best...
1621 thumb Chris eldridge left a comment on: Presbyterian Guitar Learning The Tune
Really beautiful playing here! You have a very lyrical sense of how to play the guitar and it's lovely. There isn't a ton of "fingerpicking" of this beautiful variety. The closest...

Hi Mike,  First of all, cool musical ideas throughout! Bravo on that front.  Re technique, your whole mechanism looks pretty stiff to me, and it seems to get stiffer as the tune...

Hey Greg, this new version sounds a lot more free to me even if you sounded a bit more comfortable with the old version (which makes sense!). To me it's an improvement and I'd...
