You are a great teacher.
YES! Building a foundation is key! I started blowing harp 20yrs ago ...took lessons from Ronnie Shellist, Magic Dave and few other CO locals and no one hammered on me about doing my scales and it seemed I was going nowhere fast AND just learning licks! thus I lost interest and quit! Recently rediscovered the fun in music and doing it with others and your "Trick" of practicing scales everyday!! Now at 80 it isn't as easy but I'm getting smarter as time drags on! duh! PRACTICE THE BASICS!!
This has been chewed and curated, amazingly done, thank you for this lesson Jonah
Beautiful lesson, Jonah! A must watch for all blues harmonica beginners!! Great work 👍😊
Sorry I didn't publish a video last week, I had some computer issues that I've fixed.
Next week I'll be talking about tongue blocking. Any questions?
Great lessons Jonah, thank you. Nobody ever tells you what part of the tongue is used to cover the adjacent hole(s) when tongue blocking.
@@oweedoin526 great, I’ll talk about that in the video 👍
Terrific lesson, Jonah!! Almost a complete beginner's guide to improvising over the common 12-bar blues progression. Keep up the good work!😎
What a great lesson. All the relevant scales etc. I plan to watch this a few times!
Amazing clarity! Thank you so much for taking the mystery out of this!!
Hey Jonah,
Dj here... Bought a special 20... For my b-day on the 20th of Nov 2022.
I am pro flugle horn player so I have a great amboucher and obviously a monster in music theory. I love the sound of the blues harp
thought I'd give it a try... Not bragging but somebody needs to call Oprah... 😂
Na really... I'm giving myself a month and I'll be performance ready but it wouldn't be possible without your clear instructions. Good job young man, when I get a Grammy I'll be sure to give you credit !😎
This is a really great tutorial, so is the way the tabs/ notes are displayed on the screen
Love this lesson
Thank you for putting in your time as a teacher.
Thank you Jonah, really needed this! I was confused whether I had to start AND end on the root note and it didn't really make sense to me. Now I have a structure I can built up on. This was extremely helpful!
I'm glad I could connect some dots for you!
Good lesson ..helps a lot ..good teaching
Great lesson man ... way to keep the blues formula simple ... Your really good !!!!
Excellent lesson. This makes it very clear.
Great man. Very helpful. Thanks a lot
Thank you for the priceless lesson amazing to day I got full view as a blues starter
Thankyou Sir for this wonderful lesson
Amazingly simple yet very effective thank you!
brother your teachings are amazing
Excellent
Great informative and interesting vid thanks Jon'
Thanks Jonah 👍😊,
Excellent lesson, I have been learning to play T.Blocking, so this lesson is ideal for me !
Much Appreciated,Chris
That’s cool Chris. I find tongue blocking to be so superior, but the initial few weeks using it are a little strange. I hope next week‘s video will help!
Thank for your lesson dear
Thank you Jonah and well done! I have toyed with the idea of taking a course but for one reason or another I haven't done so. I almost joined Indira Safire's course but life things get in the way and since I am 75 years old I figured it would seem like I am just a dirty old man but, she is gorgeous and very talented.
Put your class together and who knows I may join in. You have talent and are extremely easy to learn with. Keep up the good work young man and you will do well.
Richard
SirTexan I would be honored to help you get ready to work with a teacher!

Glad to hear it 👍
Wonderful 👍👍 Have a great day
you too ✌️thanks for watching
Great video!
What are the analogous places on the harmonica for slant harp?
I got a harmonica years ago gave up and stuck in the drawer just got it back out going to give it a try
Great lesson Jonah ... Move over Paul Butterfield !!!!!
How ever did i manage to teach myself? No practicing scales = let alone blues scales, I didn't learn any root notes or chord structures, I just listened to and copied- The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Them, Yardbirds et al.. Then a friend got me into the real thing, mainly Little Walter, and finally Paul Butterfield. Like Butter, I play the harp upside down and I never tongue block.
I think you meant to say that your D minor chord consisted of 4, 5, 6 draw for the 5
Yeah, I did. If you look on the screen at that point, I wrote a correction in
Hey Jonah at risk i am of making a fool of myself but.....at 3.28 you show us some pentatonic scales right ? so how come there are 6 notes in them and not 5 ?
Please explain what a t*t i am and the reason. many thanks Lolwit
It's just the octave repeated. 5 notes total, Scale degree 1 (G) is on -2 and 6.
@@HarmonicaRevolution
Of course, If i was as familiar with the notation of my harp as you are I wouldn't have asked the question. I said i'd make a t*t of myself asking it, But hey, I'll leave this on just in case an other T*t wants to know.
And hey. that was a quick reply. It's really good of you to help us out like that and i (and others )appreciate it.
This vid has helped me a lot. Hope you have the satisfaction of knowing how much this is helping. cheers mate !!
Interesting that the important blues scale notes are not chordal notes. Chords are major and minor
Other notes that don't fit the chords exactly create tension. It's the act of creating and resolving tension that makes most music sound interesting. If you are always playing on notes that harmonize, then your playing will sound safe and boring.
@@HarmonicaRevolution Well put, Jonah. I think that too many beginners do not appreciate this enough. Perhaps you can do a lesson/video just about this topic (that is: if you have not already done so). 😉
It is not easy, I have a masters degree in music, and it's hard for me. Then again, I am learning the harmonica at 62 yrs young.
Playing blues is NOT easy.
Compared to most other styles, the blues is one of the easiest in structure.
I'm a cowboy
yee-haw! 🤠
WHAT?
playing blues was easy before I learned this; shit man
I'm more confused.
