- Grifford Dewayne breaks it off on the harmonica while on tour with the Villebillies if you like what you see check out whats hes doing at johnlacross.com, or myspace.com/johnlacross.
*sets down harmonica*
I think I changed my mind about learning this thing.
Lol
nccrochet you're going to or no? Lol
It's so nice to finally meet the guy who wrote the book on how to play the harmonica "properly"! I feel so honored to even share the same comment page with you!!
the legend 27
This is Griff, he used to be in a band called Botfly, which honestly was one of the best bands I've ever heard live. They have a myspace tribute page everyone should check out. Griff is one of the best I've ever heard. The Botfly stuff is amazing, and you should check it out before you knock him.
very nice
He's a awesome, fast player, but the best in the world? That's a huge label to hang on any one person, but I'm pretty sure it's not this amazing guy!
he is by far the best harmonica player i have ever heard!
I read a good portion of these comments and found them highly amusing. Naturally, you have the folks that just enjoy watching and listening to Griff play without attempting to impersonate a music critic. Then there are those folks who read to much into, say the title of a RUclips video, and then want to pretend that they're harmonica experts and point out all the things they dislike about the way Griff plays. This is clearly just a short clip of Griff messing around with his harmonica and in no way a good representation of his skills when performing an actual song. I suggest listening to some of the material he performed with Verve Pipe to get a better idea of his talent.
You still in Phoenix yo?
Butter. Naw but.
Fuck the haters, brilliant playing man!
I play harp. Big respect to this player.
One of the best i have ever heard
I watch This one Time a day... I just .....came too
I'll have to tell him that someone said he looks like George Clooney whenever I see him again. I actually know this guy. Griff. Hes on tour with The Verve Pipe now (you can check the wiki). One of my mom's friends. I see him every once in awhile when my mom's "crowd" all gets together. Really nice guy.
Some of the best and theres more. Forgot the amazing John Popper.
I enjoyed that
This guy is THE man
I got a harmonica for Christmas. I didn't know it was capable of this!!
Natural high by talent!!
Great one, thanks for posting.
UNBELIEVABLY GOOD
i was like woah! when that beard popped out at the end, didnt see that thing
Also, to those who do criticize...ever been in a band? Ever played a gig period? It's easy to sit in your basement and convince yourself your the best harp player or whatever, but if you're not working, it's just a hobby! It's not about whose better. Anyone who plays is deserving of respect, and trust me Griff has more experience than 99% of you.
I'm glad that the Harmonica isnt a lost art yet
Yeah Griff! Good to know you're still blowin' bendin' and drawin' on that thang!
Randy Marsh
Indeed....especially when the guy is REALLY good!
Wonderful.
In the immortal sentiments (though probably not word for word as they spoke) of Freddy King discussing a certain white blues guitarist with Albert King. "...too many notes, man". "Yeah, not enough FEELIN for the blues"
O..m..g.. Talent!
He's good that's for sure.
He's not inferior because he plays a different style. This is very blues-y.... I like it :]
I never new that instrament could sound so good
Did you hear the guy in the background say, ''Keep up the practice and he'll be good''? He's already good!
you've got the skills that pay the bills!
talented
amazing
so good!!
that was the most intense minute and 35 seconds of my life. great job!!
now THAT is some GOOD HARP :) :) :) do it again!!
The key of awesome!
He is a good player, he is just showing off
Awesome!
omg i love it, my all time fav instrument
"Please help, I can't stop!!"
I'm a Brazilian Harmonica Player
Thanks!
that's a very bold statement on the title...
It's like a harmoni-gasm!
this guy is crazy! love it!
this is sick
that was awesome, great job!
every time i hear this music i have to watch my back .. because i feel like im in a car chase or something like it.. i mean.. i dont even own a car.. but .. god damn it.. XD
awesome!!!!
People are raggin' on this guy for being fast, no soul, whatever... He's damn good. It's not like he's running up and down endless arpeggios or anything. He's pretty damn funky and if there was a band behind him playing along you wouldn't be saying the same thing.
What about our own Jean ''Toots'' Thielemans who died today? I consider him as the best Jazz and blues player on the harmonica. But above all he was so humble that he was forgotten in the lists, even when he worked with Icons like Miles Davis, Benny Goodman and Ella Fitzgerald. He was also a great guitar player and whistler and made music for films. His ''Bluesette'' is world known.
Roger Wauters I never forger Toots. He stands alone. Calling him better or worse than anyone dishonors the magnificence of Toots. He’s my favorite jazz harp player.
awesome
There is a list of the best and here it is; Buddy Greene, Charlie McCoy, Sugar Blue, Kim Wilson, Sonny Terry, Paul Butterfield, Little Walter, James Cotton, Charlie Mussellwhite, Jason Rici, and the late best "Blind Chilln' Mustard Green Eatn' Hog Callin' Stump Jumpn' Cut Yo' Head Willie Johnson The Third" HIM B BAD TO DA BONE!
I just watched a bluegrass band today in my little tiny town and the harmonica player would put you to shame.
I think you mean best harmonica player on that particular RV.
Very good! Molto bene! Bravo!
THE BEST harmonica player in the world is a person named Tore Reppe from Norway. He is also my music teacher.
whoah that is well good!
wow
very good
Good he's having fun. It's impossible to be the best tho. Music is all about expressing yourself
wow you blew me socks off too.
this guys insane!!!
this is in the key of 7
Wow. Žasnu, very good.
good control man.I'm a harp player too and my hat's off to ya
Key of C.
I just.......came.
Christ almighty lad, that's fucking genius boy!
In the famous words of Jeff Spicoli, "Awesome....Totally Awesome"
amazed he had enough air
Can do that, hold my beer
Oh yeah, I can play "When the Saints Go Marching In"!
that guy must drive his neighbours insane
yeah I would sit still in shame too with my guitar if I have a harmonica played like that next to me
@rawmark Just looked up all 3. Absolutely awesome. Especially enjoyed Buddy Greene playing Bach on diatonic!
Yep dug that big time dude !
Nicco
He is eating that harmonica...
if i was in a band i would definately hire him
probably the fastest harp player in the world. Sounded good
Go listen to some old recordings of Little Walter and you'll be blown away
My head didnt explode
Thats HOT!!
just enorme houaaa !!
wow its great good on you!
There are no random sounds in this piece, a96178. This guy is showing you his chops. It's fast because he is on a speeding bus. It sounds the same because you are not listening hard enough.
oh yes that`s cool!
MAGIC!!! :D
count my vote
Holy shit... im learning the harmonica
This is quite fast... Oh my god, It is like he was gonna pass out at the end
well, that is one of the many risks involved in going down the path of a harmonica player. He's such a trooper.
No really, a reed could break and hit him in the back of the throat if he isn't careful
No comparison to this fellow, but I enjoyed the Huey Lewis video - he plays a Rollercoaster-based train tune, it's fun too.
wow man ur mad good
he is a crazy dude o_O ... LooooOOoLL...
Thanks for the laugh little boy
Slow down & play something with feel. Faster isn't better
nice and fast...very good:)
now lets hear the banjo player
just like my love making
Impressive! Don't know about the best in the world, but that's pretty damn fast!
