From Swedish HarpMeet in Norrköping September last year. After a day full of lessons and workshops we were let loose in a (yes open for other patrons) pub in a open mic kind of setting. The band was not a blues band... In fact they had been in a hiatus some years in which they hiateded (it's a word in swedish!) in booze. When I said "let's do 'Mojo'" they said "huh"?
It sounded better live (Hah!).
There was actual dancing women (2).
Hell of a lot of fun.
The "official" video featured my playing and singing :) rounded up by World champion and the main teacher those days: Mikael Fall.

Good on you Pistolcat. Now you've got the taste for public playing, I suppose?!

Looks like fun!
What was the low sound harmonica you used in the second tune... where you just played solo... and sang "bye bye bird"
Thanks.

If I know Bye Bye Bird.. That would be a low D. Probably a Hohner thunderbird :)

@opus - Both fuzzball and superB are on the money. It's Mikael Fall on a hohner thunderbird. I think it's a low D...
@1847 - Yeah. I tried to fit the words to the groove. The band had never heard the song so it all was kind of mismatched :).
