Here is a Snippet from a very old video where David gives a very straightforward and easy to understand demonstration of the EASY way to a THICK, CRUNCHY, DISTORTED, BIG sound :)

That is just a brilliant three minutes and twenty seconds of playing and explaining. No question: he is gifted on both counts. Whew!

I miss heavier Dave, mustachioed Dave and (though he does not appear in this video) mulleted Dave equally.

Dave Barrett with a mustache and mullet sounds like the gold standard for harmonica players.

Ha! +1 Mirco!

This is really great. It seems like this clip is part of a longer video. Is that true? If it is, I would like to own it. :)

damn...I didn't know David had a twin brother.
He can play harp, too!
What a great example. Thanks.
