Thank so so very much! The finger thing is to get them out of the way of my face when I go up high....I cover those holes when Im not playing them cause It makes the harp a little bassier...
Holy crap!! That is sooo fuckin deep, I don't think a lot of the audience understands half of whats really going on to pull off some of those moves!! BRAVO! Arguably, overall, one of the best harp players of all time!
Hey Jason, at 44, when I grow up I want to be just like you ! You remind of of when I first saw Johnny Lang, and thought where and when in the hell did such a young white kid get so filled with the blues. You guys must have been born on or near the days of when some great blues players passed on, and handed onto you gents the baton !
Dude, you are it! Thanks! Miss hearing you rock Donahues in Springfield Ohio. Donahues is no more but the memories you gave us up here at our local dive off the highway Will last beyond the grave. Cheers to you.
Just watching you for five minutes taught me more than I've ever known about a harmonica. As in, I picked it up, put my hands the way you do, and wow, did my harmonica bend!
Jason, your speed is so DAZZLING...but I really enjoyed hearing the slow blues. I have to admit (in spite of not being a fan of overblowing) I really appreciated your note choices. VERY Tasty stuff, man.
Man you got it brother! Poeple will talk about you in years to come just like we talk about little walter today. You are so creative and inspiring i never cared much to learn overblows before i was quite content to play standard cross harp but you've really opened my eyes to the unlimited possibilities of music (not just harmonica). Thank you a million times brother.
JASON (paisa')I was joking...as I often do ,on you tube, simply to stir..a bit of trouble...in reality I ,like every body else,enjoy your music immensely. .Italy has now discovered the blues and large crowd go to concerts...(e.g..BB king recentley played for 30000)I hope you 'll come on tour one day.
Either way is fine but knowledge will never hurt you and can only increase your chances of success. You don't have to lear everything over night but some simple scale/theory (Not reading) exercises will really help you think and develop independtly.Thanks J
It is so sad that there are people that doubt even the most regular of achievements. Hey Check out some of my other 60 videos on this subject or any of my 300 day a year touring schedule. Flattered I guess J
Gotta say, as an old guy (58+), but fairly live-let-live, who started his blues career with the likes of T-Bonbe Walker, Joe Turner and George 'Harmonica Smith' (for harp ref), I will say the initial view at this cat was a little WTF... Then I heard him blow... Learn something new every day.
@BobDenby My sentiments precisely, Bob! I had no idea who Jason Ricci was until several clicks ago. I'm 'finding' the harp again since letting it lie as a kid. This has been one of those delightful "A-HA!" discoveries.

No 'dislike' button needed!
Thanks man. and yeah just search my name and check out the videos of me with my band or go to jasonriccidotcom also our cds are in all the big record stores. Thanks again J

Jason!,,,,I love the way you play dude,,,when you come to the UK I got to come see you.
Jason-it's very sweet and touchy blues. Fantastic. What I like about you that you never get harsh on your harmonica reeds. That's great.
Dude you are King
Dude, you are it! Thanks! Miss hearing you rock Donahues in Springfield Ohio. Donahues is no more but the memories you gave us up here at our local dive off the highway Will last beyond the grave. Cheers to you.
very nice
Jason u r the man.. Thank u for sharing your skill with with all of us humble harp players.
Dude.... You've got some style: DAMN!
YEAH! Wait....SHHHHH!
Thanks for listening so close....
Watched a few vids of your band.....Fucking blown away. You are an amazing talent.
Lip pursing is using just your lips not your tongue to get one note at a time. Nice technique for getting me to answer btw. worked. Ha.
Really good stuff, Jason.
best harp from u i like the slowblues now thats a harp player .
Just watching you for five minutes taught me more than I've ever known about a harmonica. As in, I picked it up, put my hands the way you do, and wow, did my harmonica bend!
woah just chills XD
Woah, heavy metal!
Jason I Just added you to my playlist NICE!
NICE!
Jason, your speed is so DAZZLING...but I really enjoyed hearing the slow blues. I have to admit (in spite of not being a fan of overblowing) I really appreciated your note choices. VERY Tasty stuff, man.

The 8blow to 6overblow seems to be a trademark lick for Jason. Heard him call it his BB King lick if I remember correctly. Really cool.
Thank you! That means a lot coming from a great player like you!
J
Awesome 👏👏👏👏👏
man! great!
Love his phrasing. Really like his tone and his control-esp. On overblows
Iddeed my feet and Thanks!
J
Your talent always amazes me, Jason!Thanks for the fine music!
aweomseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee YO...you kick some major ass
Great! You're a real role model in this blues business.
Man you got it brother! Poeple will talk about you in years to come just like we talk about little walter today. You are so creative and inspiring i never cared much to learn overblows before i was quite content to play standard cross harp but you've really opened my eyes to the unlimited possibilities of music (not just harmonica). Thank you a million times brother.
Oh wow, I keep replaying 3:48-3:55 over and over. It's giving me goosebumps!
i was juss gonna fav this video but then i saw all the others so i guess now ima jus sub:)

Twenty years. 15 real serious.
Jason, you rip that thing like it's no ones business!
damn it's cool
@joch230 You're right on. The 8 blow to 6 overblow is most def a JR trademark, although I shamelessly use it all the time :)
I do not know if you have inspired me to keep playing or give up lol
Thanks honey dawg And Hae!
Man Thanks! you don't want to be like me though...I'm crazy in the head!
WOW!!

Then I heard him blow...
Learn something new every day.
Wow. You're good. One of the best I've ever heard. I know that took a lot of work to get that good. Thanks. I enjoyed your performance.
parabens toca de Mais
pena que nao tem tradução em Portugues
Muito bom
tks
the beginning of your second tune sounds strikingly like "Alberta Alberta" by Eric Clapton, haha!
@BobDenby My sentiments precisely, Bob! I had no idea who Jason Ricci was until several clicks ago. I'm 'finding' the harp again since letting it lie as a kid. This has been one of those delightful "A-HA!" discoveries. I'm a musician, as I'm guessing most people who follow and respond to material like this are, and hearing Jason's playing truly provided that connection to something greater -- that indescribable gut feeling you get when you just know something's right.

Thats a hohner goldwn melody mostly...check my custom harmonica video...Thanks J
Thanks man. and yeah just search my name and check out the videos of me with my band or go to jasonriccidotcom also our cds are in all the big record stores. Thanks again
