My 7-year old has been playing for 3 years now. He can bend quite well and can follow 12-bar changes live. The other morning i played him Special 20 from Blues Harp by JJ Milteau. I left the room and he started jamming to it and realized he was basically playing it. So I played it for him again and recorded it.
The original runs for a minute followed by him. This is a really high level of difficulty and a lot to take in for a first/second listen. You can hear him struggling with the techniques but he has the song running in his little head.
He used a Seydel Big Six six-hole in C.
This doesn't show of his technique...for that I have one he did the day after seeing Herbie Hancock live last week.
thats cool he has talent,;-)I tried to get my niece into playing ,gave her some harps and got her 2 half size guitars ,she likes to record when she comes over But she aint into it that much.your boy is doing good ---------- Hobostubs
If he's enjoying it and keeps going, he'll have great facility pretty soon. Sounds like your giving him excellent exposure to some really good live music, too!
