the really slowed down make you feel like drinking harmonica that who im looking for yea everone can play fast but how many can still move people but slower
on this forum I probaly am the slowest and most minimal notes player:-) Walter ---------- walter tore's spontobeat - a real one man band and over 1 million spontaneously created songs and growing. I record about 300 full length cds a year. " life is a daring adventure or nothing at all" - helen keller
Check out Harry Manx. I think that's his name. He does a blues/indian thing with some really tastey, slow, and minimal harp. Excellent tone too. ---------- Mike Quicksilver Custom Harmonicas
Harry Manx rules! I've been listening him a lot recently. He has a good tone both in singing, harp playing and on slide. I think he's music has two things that lifts it off from the rest of the bands (for me at least): 1) Song writing 2) Accuracy of melodies & micro-tonals with eastern influences
(people with perfect pitch can ignore this posting)
That James Cotton number intrigues me because he makes that harp sound like quite a low one. Recently I've mostly been playing my low F, and I thought, he's probably not playing one of those, I'll try my G, but no, he's playing an A harp. That surprised me. Or maybe it has just been too long since I played my A harp. ----------

thank these really help but it true lots of people can go fast and the back up band hits with it but to do it slow very very slow and still have people come out to the dance floor and FEEL the music is a power no one man can have to him self---sonny
the worlds slowest harp player would be a man named jenkins i met him last night at the bar he was shit faced and i was sitting in the corner blowing on my harp he walked(stumbled) over and ask if he could join me i said yea so i start playing and he played one note 3 hole blow got up walk to the bathroom came back 5 min later and blew the 3 hole again then when back to the bathroom and came back and did it again he did this about 4 or 5 times then said " that was ffffuuun maaannn letts dooo it again sometimmme " i was laughing so hard i said ok what ever ... talk about slow ..
Slow.....the guy who played the extremmmmmmmmmmmmely slow version of Dueling banjos in the background music of the movie Deliverence? :) There was what, a good 30 seconds between notes sometimes.
