after hearing this mans playing on posts on facebook,Ive decided that he is king of first position harp....he played jazz during the big band era...he apparently did not get the attention he deserved
there is a CD I got through amazon blues harmonica essentials by willie hood.....it was recorded off an old 78...you can hear the needle scratches....don't mind that......preserving that great jazz harp is key
yep, that's amazing the old Hohner harps were a hell of a lot easier to blow bend without bursting a blood vessel in your brain....I know Bob, breath control
first position on a C harp sure does sound good, at least when Rythm Willie is playing it
