I started to learn the harmonica way back in the late ‘60s. I taught myself the tongue blocking method with a Hohner wood comb diatonic harp. The wood block constantly stole and ripped my lips open. I was so glad when plastic combs arrived. Although I play mainly folk music, I would love to properly learn how to play blues style and will use your videos to help. Many thanks.
Yeah, Marine Bands swell and crack on me. The premium wooden comb harps are a bit better but I generally stick to plastic. Thanks for following my lessons and good luck!

I am trying to learn all I can on Tongue Blocking. This is a great video explaining Tongue Blocking and the reasons to learn it.
Thanks Tony, I’m doing a mini series of tongue block videos over the next few weeks so keep an eye out 😎
Gr8 stuff! Question: Can the tongue be trained to move faster than it wants to?
I've definitely sped up my flutters and sweeps, it's just a muscle that needs training 😃
Hi all good I hope, Liam is there a three hole gap, like 5 - 9 ext
Hi Christopher, if you're playing octave splits on the higher draw notes then yes 😃
