i feel like this is an audience of like six people, but Lee is playing like there is a stadium full of people there. absolutely beautiful.
What can be better than the father of iconic groove laying it out for us?
Bought my first Lee Oskar in 1986-Austin TX when they were $13...easier to play than others...louder, easy to bend, conserves air, I don't get winded, don't blow reeds like I did with brand H...Great Instrument!
The Maceo Parker of harmonica. What a happy sound! This IS the sound of WAR! Wish he'd bring back his afro.
One of the top harmonica players in the game... been around a long time... he is the man...
I remember talking all these guys in Los Angeles....man those were awesome days!!!...70z
Beautiful, I need to get a harmonica. This tune is timeless
The main riff is easy to grasp. His embellishments and groove are extraordinary.
One of the all time great groove's and song.
The one and only Lee Oskar Happy New Years!
This is completely insanely sick!! Yeah man!
Soul food;)
A true legend
Lee Oskar one bad ass dude on that Harmonica ,love his sound awesome 👍🏻
I love how those effects pedals make you sound. That is far out man so Cool how that sounds I need to get some of those. That is an interesting sound you can get out of those.
What a cool performer to watch, really getting into the groove
sun Tao oooohhhs!!! HE'S STANDING ON THE CHORD!!!

Lee Oskar was amazing in the way he used his instrument as an inside voice of the "War" R&B fusion horn section. Nobody else has ever really done that, and it absolutely makes so much musical sense. Once you mic the "harp", the sound can be colored in many ways, but the breathiness is always there in the background. Every once in a while, it peeks up out of the inner texture, but he seldom has it in your face as a constant solo instrument, the way that most blues harp players do. Through most of their songs, you'd swear it was a saxophone.
Sometimes you really hear it more as a harmonica, but it always serves the needs of the song! (see him doing his thing at 2:00 ) A real musician's musician, as all of these hit-making guys tended to be! It's all about the groove!
Truly outstanding talent. Awesome sound! Loved the different effects.
lee pulled out his harmonica standing behind me standing in line to sign up for classes one time and blew my mind (lee knows where that happened) lol
love this guy. Lowrider with a harmonica...really? Good jam.
It always had a harmonica on it. Lee Oskar on harmonica and Charles Williams on alto sax played simultaneously on the original recording. You can see then doing so in the official video at about 1:40. It’s a nice little video, ruclips.net/video/hg_KZQ7k3kI/видео.html if you are interested to see it.
It’s probably one of the coolest harmonica riffs of all time.
I am a harp myself and I find that I can do things on a Lee Oscar that I cannot on any other make, it's so responsive.
Brian McManus maybe my lungs are shot, because I don't find it responsive at all. Now the crossover is responsive. could you recommend a top shelf Lee Oscar brand. ? I've owned Lee Oscars and they have leaked air. Not responsive at all.
@@harplidreed7140 I have to agree with you! I play rockets and crossovers., and I find lee oscar's don't compare at all.
The first time I played a Lee Oskar harmonica, about 24 years ago, was like a breath fresh air. Admittedly I had only played a cheap Hohner Pocket Pal before then, which was the starter harmonica I first learned to play on, and I found the Pocket Pal to be hissy, hard work and just plain nasty. At first I thought it was something wrong with the way I was playing. But the first Lee Oskar I played was crisp and clear and ridiculously easy to bend notes on. I still use them now and can get them to do pretty much whatever I want them to do, and are really responsive. They are notoriously hard to overblow on, but since I don’t really overblow anyway that’s not an issue for me.
Lee Oskar*
Lee Oskar harps are always superb..been playing then 30 yrs. The Crossover is also an excellent harp.

What was Lee adjusting to get those effects?
@@Scio3dsports Whammy 1 pedal for Octave Down and an envelope filter for funky wah sound. Beyer Dynamic m160 mic through pals into Roland JC 120 (clean amp)

Great pedal;)..and sound
LEE OSKAR! "Performing Low Rider" YES SiR!!! Thanks! You Super GENIUS Talented/Skills Drives (ME) " KrazyNuts On THIS One, ..."SOME Times Usual JAZZ Makes ME Over Hype, And Also Your FANS Were Also Over HAPPY. "ONE ❤️' LEGEND!"
LEE OSKAR is a GREAT HARP PLAYER Steve Venegas i play the harp 2 i wish i had his talent
WOW
do you kno what pedals effect he used ?
Great playing, of course Lee is the man. Sounds like he's playing the C diatonic.
the song is in the key of G, but he plays with a C harmonica in 2nd position 👌
@@mightyhans1 I thought he was playing a D harp. Your probably right.
@@paulcook68 Yep. Definitely a C harp in second position.
@@GrilloTheFlightless I totally forgot about this thread until now! Lol I don't know why I thought it was a D harp!?
I can play it on the c and g. G is way easier, the first time I tried to play it full tilt on a c I nearly collapsed a lung and the left side of my face felt tingly on that 2 draw finish. I play it on my g now.
❤❤❤🙏
💪💪💪💪
love this guy. Lowrider with a harmonica...really? The longer it goes the funkier it gets. Good jam.
True, the longer the funkier it get
He wrote on harmonica with WAR in 1975!
wonderful the tabla? grazie
Jazz @ it's best 😅😁
Lee Oskar's the harp man :) !!!!!
Which harp (diatonic, melody maker, etc) & what key was he playing?
Tabs please!! Awesome!
Now that is far out!
What was Lee adjusting to get those effects and what key harp?
Not sure what key...I'm an amateur but sure he had a reverb or effects pedal there.
Actually, listening to it again. May have been Major Diatonic C.
@@muttley8818 he was playing a d harp.
Do you know that he plays on the original track?
Yes he does
Anyone know the tabs for the whole song?
Paeyton Lacusta, you can google it and you'll find the tabs.
What pedals is he using??????
BMX ones lol
@@ourwilliam2405 You are probably the only one laughing....
@@pulldpin67 did you lose your sense of humour ?
I really love this . Is that the tabs on the wall behind him?
It’s a giant version of the notation chart for the different types of harmonica in the Lee Oskar range that comes included in the box when you buy a Lee Oskar harmonica. Hole numbers are on the black line with the blow notes on the top line and the draw notes on the bottom line. I’ve been using Lee Oskars for for a little over 20 years and I can’t recommend them highly enough.
That Simon cowell attire 😅
Unless you play harp.... You have no idea how hard that is to play..... Alan Wilson still my man....but boy...Lee is great...
Honestly wtf dislike this video, get a life! have fun !!!
He probably has no idea that he's turning women on. Lord.
considering this is THE Lee Oskar, i thought it was pretty poor playing
rob b Really?
you have no idea what you are talking about...this is the best harp playing I have ever heard... your an idtiot..
@@pulldpin67 The best you've ever heard? No offense but there's a lot better on RUclips.
@@simonm1135 I like Alan Wilson better..but this playing is hard to beat..
@@pulldpin67 Lee is an amazing player, but guys like Jason Ricci and Peter mad cat Ruth make him look like an amateur. Look these guys up.
