Wow, I've been wondering for a while or blues soloists played notes in riffs so rapidly and this explains it really well. It also really helped me understand improv. and soloing much better. thanks so much!
Thanks. First day of this video. I did great. Im gonna estch this vifeo every morning at 7am until i master every technical thing. You do i have the first part down , im gonna see if i can master evertjing in this video in month. And then im gonna post video of me playing. Thanks for your time and help.
Dude thanks so much for sharing this...you're a great player....charismatic...charming....intelligent....and your love of the instrument is infectious....
Hey Ronnie! I know I'm a little late on this one but this video just flipped the light switch in my head I believe. What a great video. Thank you so much. You're the man. You always respond to my emails within a couple hours or less which must be tough so bless you Ronnie. You are a great help and must be a great person. Keep Harpin' brother
That 'beam of light' may be 'a sign'... hah! Anyway... that was a perfect description of what 'the solo' is all about. I mean if a performer, in rock or blues or funk... or whatever, can get by without playing a triplet 'loop' (I like to call 'em) that is way above my sensibilities - everybody - I mean EVERYBODY plays those!! Tri-pul-et - Tri-pul-et - Tripul-et!!! Some guys get lost in the 'loop' while they're making 'plans'... on where to go next! You nailed it for me, man! Perfect description on the bends, the routines, explanation, demonstration... BOOM! In... a... nutshell! I have enough info to keep me working for a WEEK! Thanks a lot! - jef G
Learning your bent blues licks right now. I am excited to test out a few at a Casino gig tonight. If folks want to learn the harp, hang out with Ronnie Shellist and he will get you some great material.
I just let things flow when I play, never really thinking about where the riff is going. Playing from the heart has made me a better player as I have gotten older.
Thanks for this. I'm a beginner struggling with triplets and this was helpful. I really like what you said about soloing and where does the music lead you, music is a surprising and beautiful thing.
Love this. Can you focus a lesson in the high octaves in 1st position? You touched on it here. Hard to find lessons on that. That's where I am weakest. Safe to say tons of harp players are weak up there. Thanks, man
I wanted to go to the harmonica event you and gussow, but tickets? im really far away in Lancaster California but I have a car and I love the harmonica and I would like to see you guys play that would be really neat and exciting to me.
That little riff around 2:55 is something I kinda picked up from Aerosmith's "Pink" haha just moved up to the 4 and 5. Gives me something good to practice. I can get these but mine still sound kinda...... squeaky haha
i may not write tabs out but I often call them out in my videos. put the time in and develop your ear. that's the best way to begin writing your own tablature.
You are a wonderful musician, I don't know how you don't use Marine Bands, You really deserve a better tone! Those jap harps are beaultiful but sounds dead compared with a Hohner.
This was extremely useful especially to intermediate players. Thanks!
Ronnie, thank you for these great tips!!! Your videos giving motivation to learning harp more and more.
Thanks for putting this up. Just wish I could grab back those 10 years ago you did it, and start over again.

Thanks for opening my eyes to how I was kinda boxing myself in with blow notes
Thanks for this.
This will make me a better player.
Now it's just up to me to put the time in.

Really good tutorial!!! You and I play a very similar style, thanks for posting these excellent videos!!

Great videos
Really helpful video man thank you very much... they are some dirty, dirty licks. You are a very good player.
Thanks Ronnie really enjoyed

Thanks for this lesson. Ran across you from another website. Loved your solos and hope to learn more from you! Dave Brown

yep
thanks man, perfect riffs, blues from chile
Great tips! Thanks.
very good! thanks Ronnie!

There are some really good harmonica instructors out there, and Ronnie Shellist is one of the best.
Thanks Ronnie
Thanks much
Great ideas here!!
I knew it was a manji as soon as i heard it. They do sound good!
The first 2 harps that I owned were A and C. They are still the two I play most.
very good video, we ask for more;)
excellent!!!!
Omg that's what I needed, just heading towards home with my brand new fresh shiny rocket in A :D
Thanks
yep..and it happens to be a key that many folks own outside of a C harp
That beam of light above your head is your halo. No worry.
Take it from me, I'm a videographer/photographer-- it's the angel of the camera that needs to be adjusted.
Ronnie, try hanging a sheet of white paper in front of the light fixture between the edge of the light and the camera.
Great lesson Ronnie. Loved the part near the end where you started "squeezing" extra notes out just 2/3 holes.
I was waiting for you to be beamed up during the whole video. Scotty must not have had his co-ordinates quite right ;)
Lovely
to get rid of lens flare, tilt cam down... thanks for info!!
;) thanks
Love this. Can you focus a lesson in the high octaves in 1st position? You touched on it here. Hard to find lessons on that. That's where I am weakest. Safe to say tons of harp players are weak up there. Thanks, man
i'll see what i can do.
Thanks
You make it look easy. It is tough. Going to have to work at it. Do you do this pucker or TB?
Tony Stephens go find a tunnel to play in! that's what I do =)
I use both pucker and TB but for bending I almost exclusively pucker.
i think the word ronnie is looking for at 4:30 when he's talking about soloing is "fluid"
I wanted to go to the harmonica event you and gussow, but tickets? im really far away in Lancaster California but I have a car and I love the harmonica and I would like to see you guys play that would be really neat and exciting to me.
It's a harmonica in the key of A.
Hey Ronnie these triplets are mostly or all pucker played?
all
@@Harmonica123 thank you!
are your lessons suited for a pure beginner? I want to learn but don't know where to start. no live instruction where I live.
Ronnie just curious what key harp are you using?
Hi, what is the brand name this harmonica, this sound is amazing! :) Brand name and type.
That little riff around 2:55 is something I kinda picked up from Aerosmith's "Pink" haha just moved up to the 4 and 5. Gives me something good to practice. I can get these but mine still sound kinda...... squeaky haha
Hello, can you tell me what's the highest and the lowest key?
1.
2.
3.
.....
Google nigga
this is chino's brother from deftones. XD
THATS who he reminds me of! I have been watching ronnies videos for ages and he's always reminded me of someone! That's it!
LOL
😵😵😵
Nós seu vídeos nunca tem uma tablatura, ao menos demo?
i may not write tabs out but I often call them out in my videos. put the time in and develop your ear. that's the best way to begin writing your own tablature.
The blue shaft of light is lens flare put a little piece of carbonara
whats the key of that hrmonica?
You shut your brain down and let your spirit take over
Also try fastly -3 4 -4 -4''
Tablaatura???????
Ha, nevermind, just watched again and saw the key in the beginning. :)
i have total beginner material at Harmonica123, my website. check out the beginners package download.
He sure loves that A harp doesn't he?
teh light is a harmonica halo
You are a wonderful musician, I don't know how you don't use Marine Bands, You really deserve a better tone! Those jap harps are beaultiful but sounds dead compared with a Hohner.
Put a little piece of cardboard above the lens
who cares
Nothing 'square',here.. (You probably can't do 'square',as a demo.,if you tried.) Cheers.
way too fast, not a good teaching technique--RS-a teacher
