On the note of less is better. My first band many years ago had a Jamaican bass player, it was a reggae come R & B band, and one night after a gig he asked me when and why I, the white harp player, got into Jamaican music. I told him it was Millie Small in '64 (I was 13) that stopped me in my tracks when that off beat syncopation kicked off on the first 'lollipop' and as the Ska slowed down then became Rock Steady and finally matured as Reggae, I explained how some of the bass lines hit me somewhere deep down. 'Ow ya mean' he asked, so I sang the bass line to 'Long shot kick the bucket' complete with the drum fills in the gaps (a few rums helped). He slapped his leg and laughed, 'Yeah mon, why ya tink me pick a bass? It's da notes ya nah play dat mek a good bass line g-r-e-a-t. Ya mek a lickle space fi someone else an when ya come a back in, BOOM, ya hit um'. Words of wisdom I've not forgotten.
The apparent simplicity of the harmonica is only overshadowed by's actual complexity. Thank goodness for people like you. 🙏
Gussow, thank you for your lessons they are much appreciated. Grace and peace be multiplied
I'm lovin Gusso's modern blues harmonica lessons.
I know that this is an old video and you may never see this comment, but I just wanted to say thank you! I've really started getting into harmonica recently and your videos have been brilliant. I love how you can both bring things down to a simple level that I can follow and that you can play other things to raise my excitement to improve. Your videos have been a real encouragement.
I also love how you have a bit of a chat about what you are doing and why as well as background info. It makes it feel more like I'm listening to a real person as I would if in person with a teacher/mentor. Makes it all more personal.

Wow! Tank'you very much...Great teacher..!🎶 ❤️
Thank you so much for these musical pearls of wisdom..!! Great...👐🤗
These videos are such a help. My mum died suddenly three years ago and she always had harmonicas about and so I’ve decided to learn to play recently with the last one she bought I’ve already got a decent amount of blues riffs down thanks to you and your natural teaching style. Sincerely and honestly, thank you.
Agree with many comments :
You might not see this post but again: THANK YOU.
Splendid teacher .
i really like this type of vids where you're explaining bases of a rythm and giving few riffs to use with the rythm
I actually found this completely by accident while trying to imitate La Grange by ZZ top . Now i have more to do with it. Thankyou so much!
Fantastic lesson. Thank you so much, Sir. The rhythm is so critical to the sound. You dial it in so nicely.
Adam is the Technical professor of the harmonica. The best teacher on RUclips. To really appreciate who is check out Satan and Adam on Netflix a very inspirational documentary
I love your knowledge of the musical history around the Mississippi, you mention in your vids. A good background for a harmonica player ! Thanks for all your help !
Thanks for taking the time to do all this. I've purchased the deluxe set of your beginner lessons and throughly enjoy them, but if my friends hear Ol' Susanna one more time I think they are going to jam my harp down my throat,
Love the book in the corner by Mr glover first Harp book I bought back in the seventies.
I been doing this with two groups I play with and it really gets the guitarists going! Thanks a mil Adam
Funny how all the sudden all the things you have been working on start to take shape and actually sound good... Thanks professor!
I Love Gussow's harmonica, is the best
What a great lesson. So much here, and your method and humble nature is just makes is so enjoyable and relatable. Thank you!
Thank you so much Adam for proving this great resource - you are unlocking things for me slowly as I begin to understand how to play things in order across the instrument. The harmonica can sound bluesy, but you help us all to sound bluesier, if we can take the time to stick with it. Regards from Melbourne, Australia.
After years of playing country / bluegrass I'm digging back into the blues for a gig this summer, and your channel is the perfect bootcamp. I can't thank you enough. Your sound, technique, and feel has always been up there with the other greats for me, and it's just such a gift from you to unpack how both how you play and how you think about it.
Mate you are who I won’t to be . You are brilliant. Been trying to be like you all this week😀 not doing too good but I’m enjoying it i’ll be sticking with you mate
You have to work hard every single day, in the future you will be even better.
I'm sure it took him longer than 1 week to become him 🙂
Mr. Gussow
Thank you for taking your time to make these life lesson harp playing videos. I’d like to meet you one day.
“ Keeping it simple one day at a time “
Thank you for all you do and and all you have done. We are all better because of you!
Thank you so much Adam, what makes me keep coming back to your videos is your passion for the harmonica and the music it can play. Thank you!
Thanks Adam, your lessons are great. Thanks for taking your time to teach us❤. I was wondering is there any techniques for practising breath control particularly for this solo. Thanks again.
I see Tony Glover's book in the background. I bought it in the 60's and couldn't make head or tail out of it. Wish there was you tube back then! Thanks for the engaging lesson!
Thank you Mr Gussow. Another wonderful lesson.
Thank you very much Adam I've been following you for years and it's wonderful to stumble upon a video that I listen to multiple years ago only to realize now have that riff and accompanying licks at my disposal thanks to you. Thank you many times over. - Adam West
Cheers from Mexico City, you really explain clearly and easy this beautiful art.
You have a very engaging way of sharing your thoughts - it feels natural. Thanks
Excellent lesson! Thanks Adam!
Thank you Adam, that helped a lot. Always enjoy your lessons.
Wow, you are Amazing! Because of you I started playing
Everytime i feel down and grab my harmonica to learn, your videos are here for me 🤙 keep on keepin on
My sister and I, we teach a variety of different things like skiing and school but however YOU ARE AN AMAZING INSTRUCTOR! Keep up the good work! Thank You
Thank you, Adam. I really appreciate you and your videos. You're excellent!
By the time you started talking, I had the riff down, including most of the embellishments...because I have been learning primarily from YOUR videos for the last several years. I love that Boogie Woogie is linguistically equivalent to Booty Wiggle. Thank you for that nugget of gold...among all the others you've shared over the years.
P.S. Speaking of nuggets of gold, you got so distracted by all the "spices" that you never clarified the, "Ch'ching," you used to expel the surplus intake was a IV chord, blowing the 1,2, and 3 holes simultaneously. However, you did also say, "See if you can figure out what I'm doing there," so I guess you gave yourself an out. LOL Thanks for yet another great groove lesson.
Thanks, again, for your discerning praise. I always appreciate it!
Gussow's classic blues harmonica videos
Adam
You taught me how to play the harmonica. The way you present the lessons makes it easy and fun to learn. All thanks to you for firing up my passion to become great.
Adam, you’re the best. Keep it coming. I learn more from you in 15 minutes then I do anybody else after an hour
I appreciate that. Some have criticized me for being too talky; not cutting quickly enough to the chase. So your praise means something!
Couldn't of have said it any better !
I always get hypnotised by your boogie adam.
A fantastic lesson, Adam! Thank You so much for sharing!
Nice. !!
Great explanation and the history is really interesting.
Thanks Adam
I have learned more from these videos than anything else. I plan on purchasing the rest to further improve my playing.
Thank you from Italy ❤️🎶🎶
Thankyou very much Adam , absolutely love your harmonica playing. Big fan from Perth Western Australia.
Way cool. I love your videos. I got myself my first harmonica in years today for 37 cents, at $1.69/ lb. a no name with a nice case. I took it apart, cleaned it, reassembled it, and now I'm ready.
Great lesson. I love that groove!

Awesome!
great lesson Adam! love your work!
Hi just wanted to say I found your video two days ago I played guitar for 20 years I never did get my foot down packed and blues comes on I'm always right in the groove well I ordered a marine C harmonica
Hot dam! What a lesson. Thanks Adam. You are awesome
Make me proud.
Thanks, Adam,
Great riff
WOW, I'm DETERMINED to Learn this One !!!!! 🤯😎
First idea that came to my mind is to change from 2 draw to 3 blow. Is the same note, and since it doesn't need the color of a bend, you can change it from time to time. If you stick to 3 blow is the same problem, more air out than in.
EDIT: Nevermind! Doesn't work as well as I thought...I'll keep thinking. Thanks for the class, sir.
U rock Adam!
Can’t thank you enough for all your videos. You’ve taught me so much. Really got me trying harder to play well Just wish I had better tone. Oh well. I’ll keep trying.
Good old Adam, I always learn something from you my friend
Man you are the master !
Excellent 👍👍❤❤
Badass dude. 👍👍🔥🔥🔥
Nice one Adam as always. Now I can attempt On the Road Again
Bloody awesome lick!
great lesson...
