Sounds good Ted :)
Surely you felt less blue afterwords.

Exemplary as always. I especially enjoy your effortless demeanor, no squinty eyes and/or grimaces, just ho-hum, lemme knock out this kick-ass piece before my nap. As an older player, I appreciate being represented by you. Now, if you were fat and bald, I'd appreciate it even more. I hope you don't mind if I emulate (steal) some of your stuff. You and The Hawk top my low-profile favorites.

Thanks, FM.Maybe I could the elder version of LD Miller. "60 year old greyhair plays like a 15 year old harmonica prodigy">----------

I think that is some good tone. Always impressed by your playing TheoBurke. You have your own style and sound.

Very good with what is probably my least favorite key harmonica.

Are these completely improvisational & done in one take? How do you decide how long to make each recording? Are others welcome to join in jammin & postin vids on this thread?

@RyanMortos: These are one take improvisations; I generally make three at a time and post the best ones to YouTube. The length of the video usually depends on how long the backing track I'm using is. All others who would like to post their own videsos, please do. The more the merrier in the pursuit of sweet blues harmoncia music.----------

Hi Rayan. I find a lot of my stuff on You Tube, putting in search words like Blues Backing Track In E, and then selecting from the results. There is much to choose from there. Also, I go to harmonicaboogie.com, which has a backing track page, and I use tracks I find at guitarbackingtrack.com.
