The amazing Pat Bergeson. This guy is a monster player, and will be teaching this year. You gotta listen to his great playing at the end of this song too. This is a C diatonic in 1st position. Wow...

He's one of the top players in Nashville, and in the world. Visit his YouTube channel and take a look at the list of artists he's played and recorded with. Or just look him up on Wikipedia.

This is gonna be an incredible SPAH. Pat's one of my favorite players, so it's gonna be awesome for me.

One of things I like most about the harmonica (particularly when played acoustically) is how different the shape of the sound is from player to player.

@Todd Parrott:

Thank you for posting.

Thanks Todd, I enjoyed listening to Pat. He has not only great taste & technique but a highly developed understanding of jazz harmony. That second attribute sets him apart from the vast majority of harmonica players, who have little clue what's going on as soon as a song modulates into different key centres.

No wonder Nashville's heavy hitters enjoy playing with him, he speaks their language. Looks like we have a new Charlie McCoy!
