Delta Blues came up the Mississippi, became electrified in Chicago, picked up by a British boy and delivered to the outback... now I call that some Rock N' Roll.
Keith said Mick was much better at playing harmonica than he is at singing. This is okay, but his harp playing on "Midnight Rambler" is my absolute favorite.
I agree, Midnight Rambler was Mick at his best. Mick at his worst was the harp solo on Like A Rolling Stone on the Stripped CD. God, he was dragging the notes! Harmonica is like any instrument, you have to maintain your base. The first blues riff I learned was Spider and the Fly.
When it comes to judging singers or musicians it’s totally subjective. Mick never tried to hit the high Cs or audition for the Met. To many, he is the best Rock & Roll singer there ever was or will be. His harmonica lends a haunting feel to many of the Stone’s classic hits, giving them a depth of feeling not heard before.
I remember seeing this at the start of Mick jaggers solo tour of Australia back in 1988. The concert was one of the best I’ve ever seen. Absolutely amazing.
The best freaking solo harmonica clip I have ever seen...including the dusty windy down under setting and those country folks wondering who the heck is playing the harmonica??
I remember first seeing and hearing this from Mick Jagger, shows another talent of his. Famous Artist like Mick can pick up and play in or out of tune and still get fans listening in or buying it because of who he is and what he has achieved in his life. ❤
I'd go with an old crystal element Astatic or the vintage, controlled reluctance element Green Bullets and a Fender Princeton with 6V6 power tubes. Then mic the amp. Nobody blows harp through a Marshall!
Agree this is his best playing blues harp. Maybe not up to his great singing, showmanship and ability to help keep the band together, but a really decent effort.
@@edweber6136 I've just practiced at Overblows, but I'm sure there he's not playing any. Yes, it's relatively easy if you've been playing for a while like everything else if you know what you're doing. And, Mick Jagger does, and of course the best equipment to record om helps too. But, still it wouldn't sound good if Mick Jagger didn't sound good no matter how good the recording gear is. I don't have a harp in front of me, but believe the key is E playing an A harp for cross harp. Maybe D using a G harp, maybe F using a Bflat.
It was the intro to Mick Jagger's 1988 TV special "Mick Jagger Deep Down Under" - not sure if it was given a name but here it is ruclips.net/video/-acd_XXmuUA/видео.html
This is in outback NSW .. the train is a diesel class 49 NSW .. c. 1980-1990. The town is possibly Carinda .. the train yards are filmed elsewhere, as this clip is not filmed all in one place. But it's sure outback NSW.
Genius in many ways
The man never stops. He is the Energiser Bunny of R&R.
That was from 1988
As I say every time I see the Stones in concert " Go Man Go !"
One of the greatest, most underrated harp players of all time.
Not really!
@@colincampbell4261. I'm with you, hes probably in the top one million though!
Hardly
He is really good. He played on a Living Color album many years ago. It was great.
@@RickBeall he’s good for open mic night at Gator’s place
Wow love him ❤
Basic crossharp with good tone and mic/amp combo.
What key harp is it
@@john-nx4xn He's using a D harp
@@darrellpetersen133 Rolling stones is probably the only thing I use my D and E harps for
Delta Blues came up the Mississippi, became electrified in Chicago, picked up by a British boy and delivered to the outback... now I call that some Rock N' Roll.
Correct
That's right
Shows he really knew his blues, and not just rock n roll.
Still does
blues is why he got into music; his two faves were Muddy Waters abd Howlin' Wolf
Damn fine Harp
Great share

Keith said also that Mick was the best singer, he even excused him for what he wrote about Mick, quite confuse guy, not really a nice fellow.

Agree 100%
IL DÉCHIRE TOUT !! LA CLASSE !!! 👍👍👍
Excellent, excellent, excellent, excellent, excellent
Great clip…..
Genial....interessiert mich besonders, weil ich auch diese Harmonika spiele....aber Mick hat's zur Meisterschaft gebracht....🔝💯....
This Brit can blow that harp. Very nice.

Mick Jagger
@@Auricfield the beast
I would come a'runnin.!
Love it !
Brian Jones taught Mick Jagger to play the Harmonica
Minimalistisch. Tolles Video! Passt alles!
Soo wish this amazing song was a lot longer!!!
Amazing 🎵

No better front man ever
A Gem❤
Just so cool !
Awesome 👌
John Sebastian plays the harmonica on the Doors Road house blues
I kept looking for Mick's harp mic and his Marshall stack.
I'd go with an old crystal element Astatic or the vintage, controlled reluctance element Green Bullets and a Fender Princeton with 6V6 power tubes. Then mic the amp. Nobody blows harp through a Marshall!
Wish I had the tabs for this
So good
My boots are totally tapping...REDWINGs....!WHO is playing that outstanding guitar...ALL TOGATHER GENIUS !!!
Joe Satriani and Jimmy Rip
You can HEAR the rust!
Exactly :)
The same context that the video on "Party Doll" really good one.
~Very cool!!...strange.....kisses!!
Easy to tell which country this filmed, Australia.
Mick mother was Australian, born in Sydney of English descent;
@@Methilde Yes, I knew some second cousins.
Bravooooo
Agree this is his best playing blues harp. Maybe not up to his great singing, showmanship and ability to help keep the band together, but a really decent effort.
La armónica suena , igual como al paso del tren
Harmónica On 🎵
Man such a video....
How should I set my amp to get this kind of sound with my harmonica ? High bass or something ?
Pretty easy to play, but shit its so badass
Whos on guitar....?
@@muddobbermuddobber8118 Robert Johnson.
It's only easy if you know what how to play it. Great video in every way!
You think it's easy? Were there any over blows? If not, then I'll agree. Btw, any idea what key that's in?
@@edweber6136 I've just practiced at Overblows, but I'm sure there he's not playing any. Yes, it's relatively easy if you've been playing for a while like everything else if you know what you're doing.
And, Mick Jagger does, and of course the best equipment to record om helps too.

I don't have a harp in front of me, but believe the key is E playing an A harp for cross harp. Maybe D using a G harp, maybe F using a Bflat.
Reminds of something by Led Zeppelin... levee breaks?
What song is this?
Bet you cant guess the key Mick is playing.
A,🙂
I’m guessing A , going to get them out in a bit and give this a go
yeah man , thats an A harp i reckon . . .
He is playing a D harp. The song is in A. That's me giving it a go.
@@gioscervelo Ok , well whatever the key , Mick is good on the harmonica .
What film is it? Which one does it come from?
ruclips.net/video/-acd_XXmuUA/видео.html
:-)
What album is this from?
Mick Jagger Live In Australia TV special - no album
Probably when he was filming "Party Doll video, maybe just for fun.
Waht's the name this song?
It was the intro to Mick Jagger's 1988 TV special "Mick Jagger Deep Down Under" - not sure if it was given a name but here it is
ruclips.net/video/-acd_XXmuUA/видео.html
@@Auricfield thanks
Brian jones was the harp player. If you want to hear a great harp player, Listen to Paul Butterfield.
What key is his harmonica.
I just know that In sweet virginia he used a harp in A.
Hes playing the cross harp tecnique, the harp is in the key of D, to play the blues in A
this blues in in A, and the harp is an D-Low one.
a loud one...
;)
but I think it's a crossover- version of harp in D low.
Not a lot of context for this clip. For the record he DIDN'T play harp on The Stones biggest hit to feature the instrument, "Miss You".
Opener from this concert:
ruclips.net/video/-pHZF87YMXk/видео.html
Sugar Blue played that for the Stones. Sugar also did his own ripper version of Little Red Rooster btw. Look it up.
Good, but not the best, he plays so many greats ones specially on stage, Midnight Rambler and a few others.
@@rubytuesday4379 RIGHT !!
Brian Jones originally taught Mick the harp. Jones was so musical.
Jones has a very classic style, Mick created his own particular one, differents eras.
I don't think he can overblow
He's no John Popper.
Not meant to be......
Gonna find John P..ty
And he is not mick jagger
Appalachia or Oz?
Broken Hill, NSW, Australia 1988
This is in outback NSW .. the train is a diesel class 49 NSW .. c. 1980-1990. The town is possibly Carinda .. the train yards are filmed elsewhere, as this clip is not filmed all in one place. But it's sure outback NSW.
Appalachia is all mountains and trees, not desert.
@@diannelarsen whosplaying GUITAR?
@@chrisjaybecker .hills and hollers...for the whippoorWills..in morning dew..Love yall..
very good but not in the league of amazing blues harp players IMHO
One of the best front men ever! Harmonica playing not so much. 🤔😩
I beg to differ, this world class blues Harp , not just overly complicated , but world class . In my opinion
Keith said when Mick playing harmonica , tha'ts the real Mick , the singer is a whole bunch of people . . . . .😁
@@pmf598 I’ve never heard that but I can believe it watching this
@@andydunn5673 Yeah it's in Kieths book Life . . . some good stories in that book , very readable .
@@pmf598 thanks for telling us that. I believe it
Rich white man playing blues to poor white people? Sign if the times?
not too impressive
He's not that skillful to be honest only plays piss easy riffs.
....I've been told he could sing a bit as well ...
@@lust4bass bet hes a beatles fan...lol
Best tunes r the easiest, the genius lies in making a piss easy totally brilliant piece of music
@@muddobbermuddobber8118 no harm in being a Beatles fan, but I am a total right winger when it comes to MJ, can't tolerate blasphemy😃
I'ze never seen this here before...
Bad player!
