@daddyray...Thanks for checking out the video and I am glad that you like it.

@Mike...yes there was a time when I was feeling tentative with my singing.  I just sang as often as I could and listened to myself singing.  Gradually over time I would edit out...

@Mike...thanks!! I don't really like the way I sing...I think my problem isn't to be in pitch or not...it's really how the sound is goin out from the mouth...It's a matter of vocal...

Your video of catfish blues doesn't run properly, everytime I go to watch it, it keeps on cutting out. Is there anything you can do to help?

   @Corry worked on turn around getting closer and part B needs abit more practice I tried slowing down but as soon as I press record that gose out he window theres also a veration...

Hi Thomas ... we don't offer that yet.  The way people are doing it is 1. recording the audio on their PC or Mac 2. uploading it via the Upload Video button (it takes audio too) If...

Yes, the original is in F minor played on a Bb harp. Just use a regular A harp if they play it in E minor.

thanks for sharing this stuff with us.....the hotel room (I am gonna assume by the decor) playing is terrific. 

Hi Corey .. I love your singing and playing on the album.   Was there ever a time when you were tentative with your singing?  If so, how did you break through it I'm asking as...

@Alex...sounding good.  I would only suggest that you try and put some brushes in there for dynamics.  There is one part in the main riff where I put in a little brush with the...

Hi all,  I am new to the site, I was searching for lessons, found How long blues in my search but it is not shown in the list and I was wondering is there a complete iisting of all...

Rich You have to listen closly to the breakdown and try, as best you can, to replicate what I'm playing. Your ability to do so will demonstrate that you are hearing it correctly...

EHarp Begin at the beginning with the lesson on "Chord Rhythm" and work your way up through the basic techniques before you begin the song breakdowns. Make sure you can play...

Hi Bill Start at the beginning with 'Chord Rhythm" and work your way up through all the basic techniques before you begin the song breakdowns. Concentrate especially on getting...

Hi Aria, Welcome to Sonic Junction. Listen closely, have fun and you'll make progress. Glad to have you on board.

Kudos to both Biscuit Mic and Preston. Great clips. Preston - your phrasing is really excellent and has that relaxed lazy feel of Slim Harpo along with a wonderful improvised...

@Corey.....here's my video..I'm takin time to work on the variation...Grazie..A presto Alex

Fantastic lesson Duke. This is just the kind of thing I love; right there when the delta starts to go electric.  This is the kind of blues you can get in a groove with and play for...

Mike, thanks.  Yeah, I agree, of course, in a lesson its important to see the face.  I just got really frustrated trying to see what he was doing in these vids....( I may have...

Hi Tom .. you're right.  In future videos Rick is going to be framed just like Duke and Corey so you can see both hands.   I do think seeing each other (the face) is important too...

Good Stuff, LearningtheHarp. Keep the posts coming!

How about showing Rick actually playing his guitar?  It would be really nice to see what he's doing with both hands.... no offense, but it doesn't help to watch his face.
